Happy Mother's Day

Things are changing. I am moving out of state in two weeks, I took a new job out of IL. Feels good to be leaving this place.

My house is up for sale, but it hasen't sold yet. I wish it would sell soon, it is putting a damper on things.

I have taken a job out of state and will be moving within two weeks, I can't wait until I leave here.

Love u,
Cathy

Hi Mom:

Makenzie was born on December 19, 2009. She was 9.1 lbs. and 21.5 inches long. She is so precious. Wish you were here to see her.

The holidays came and went, faster and faster each year.

So much is changing, I am planning a move out of state. I am finally feeling better for the first time in over 20 years.

Everyone is doing well!

Love u,
Cathy

Dear Mom:

I miss you very much, and I can't believe you are going to be gone five years December 20th. Time goes by to fast.

Love u,

Dear Mom:

Just thinking about you.

Thanksgiving is almost here again, it seems like it was just here. The holidays come faster and faster each year.

I don't decorate at Christmas at all, and haven't since you've been gone. The holidays are just not the same.

I can't belive it will be four years already. So much has happened since you have been gone.

I was sick in September - October and had to be off work on disability leave. It has been a crazy year. Wish you were here.

Love you very much.

Love Cathy

Dear Mom:

Just thinking about you.

Love You,

Cathy

Hi Mom:

Just wanted to let you know my last class is tomorrow evening. I alreay know I have an A in the class. We are only going to be there an hour and then the school is buying us dinner. After dinner we are all going out for drinks.

I will receive my diploma in January. We won't actually walk until May. I wish you could be here. This has been a real accomplishment for me, it has been fun, exciting, and a great experience.

I am going back to school in January to start on my next degree, which will be in Human Resource Management. I work in HR now and I love it, it is great.

I wish you could be here with me to celebrate, you would be proud of me.

I can't belive Christmas is a couple days away, it comes faster and faster every year. I took some time off starting after Friday I will be off until after the 1st. This is much needed.

Everyone is doing fine. Brian is starting school in January.

We all miss you very much.

I love you and miss you.

Cathy

Dear Mom:

Just thinking about you. I wanted to let you know I will complete my Degree on December 19, 2007. My degree is in Business Management. I wish you were here to see this. I am the first one of our family to graduate with a college degree.

The weather is starting to get cold now and I really hate it; I wish it was warm all year long.

Thanksgiving is next week already, I can't believe it. Before you know it it will be Christmas, New Years, and then we start all over again.

Its hard to belive that you will be gone three years already, this time goes by just too fast.

I love you and miss you very much.

Love, Cathy

Dear Mom:

Happy Birthday, I can't believe it has been three birthday's already. I really miss you.

Crissy had a little girl in September and I wanted to let you know, her name is Kennedi Marie. Marie was after you.

Everyone is doing fine.

I am looking into going to DePaul for a second degree. So I have been pretty busy with school and everything else.

I love you and I miss you very much.

Love Always,

Cathy

Dear Mom:

Merry Christmas I miss you very much, I wish you were still here.

I was out of town for the Holidays and just got back so that is why I did not sign the book on Christmas.

Everyone is doing fine here.

Love you and miss you,

Cathy

Dear Mom:

I can't believe it is two years today since you passed, it seems like yesterday.

I love you Mom and miss you very much.

Love Always,
Cathy

Dear Mom:



Happy Birthday!



Its hard to believe how fast the time is going. This is Birthday number 2 that you have not been here for.



My job is wonderful, I love it. It is a company that cares about their employees. School is good, I am half way done. I have been inducted into Kappa Beta Delta Honor Society, the second Honor Society. I will have my college degree December, 2007. The actual ceremony will be held May, 2008. I will be walking in the prosession, wish that you could be here to see me receive my college degree. So far I am a straight A student. It takes a lot of work. I enjoy going to school, it keeps me busy.



We have started looking around at houses, we want to move. Hopefully, it will not be is stressful as the last move.



Brian is doing well, he is working and looking into attending school for Heating & Air conditioning.



Crissy is pregnant again, another little one is on the way. Kayla, Kinu, Titon, Crissy & Jason are all doing well.



Chris had another heart attack two months ago, he is doing good and he is back to work.



Jenny completed school and she is working as a massage therapist.



Laura is doing good, she will start college in August.



Cindy & I are doing good.



Well, I guess the house on Irving will be coming down soon. A builder bought it and is going to be tore down.



Happy Birthday Mom, I love you and miss you.



Cathy

Dear Mom:



Happy Mother's Day!



I can't belive that this is the second Mother's Day without you. I miss you very much.



It seems like yesterday that you were with us and now you are gone.



I love you so much and miss you.



Love always,



Cathy

Dear Mom:



I can't believe it has been a year that you passed (December 20). I had a mass said for you. I really miss you very much.



Merry Christmas Mom, I can't believe you are not going to be with us. Last year we were in shock mode and now the reality is setting in. I can't wait for the holidays to be over with. They will never be the same.



Well let me tell you a little bit about what I have been doing. I have been going to school for my Business Management Degree so far so good. I have been inducted in to the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society for high grades. I have also been asked to join the Business Management High Honors Program. How about that, I have been getting straight A's. I am in a Fast Track Program, I have a new class every six weeks. I have met a lot of great people since I have been in school. I love it.



I have also changed jobs. I am finally working at a great company and I love it. I am doing what I want to do, I am in Human Resources and I am an HR Coordinator. Guess what, it looks like I will be traveling. My company has a corporate jet and they want me to travel to our different sites. You know what, I am really feeling good about all of this. I am a little scared but, I am going to do it. They are also paying for my schooling which is great. I really lucked out with this job mom.



You must be helping me out.



I really hope you can see what is going on down here.



I really miss you and I wish you were here. I hope that you and Dad have a very Merry Christmas.



I love you MOM & DAD.



Love you always,



Cathy

Dear Mom:



I can't believe that it is almost one year since you have passed. A lot has happened in this past year. The holidays are approaching and I can't wait until they are over. Last year we were in shock mode because you had just passed away on December 20th. This is going to be a real bummer of a Christmas without you. I am not in the Christmas Spirit at all because the holidays are not the same at all anymore. It is still hard to believe that you are not here with us anymore. I still sometimes start to dial your number to call you and then I catch myself and remember that you are no longer here.



I am having a mass said for you on Tuesday, December 20th because it is one year. I really miss you a lot and I wish that we could have had some private time together so that I could have talked to you but, we all know that that was impossible.



I talk to you every day, I hope that you hear me and I hope that you have seen what has happened in the past year.



I really miss you mom, I just wish that I could talk to you, just one last time.



I love you very much and I miss you. Tell dad I love him and miss him to.



Love you always,



Cathy

Dear Mom:



I was thinking about you this morning. I remember you telling me that when you went for chemo you could not believe how many kids were receiving chemo with you. You always said that you cancer was not just from smoking. I do believe that it was not just from smoking. The radio station is having a telethon for Childrens Memorial Hospital for the kids with Cancer. The stories are so sad mom, I just feel so bad. I made a donation this morning becaue I want them to find a cure for cancer. I started crying on the phone when I was giving my information for the donation. I told the lady on the phone that I just lost my mother to cancer and that you use to tell me how many kids were there getting chemo when you were and it made you so sad. I told the lady on the phone that I also lost my father to cancer as well a while ago.



Mom, I remember you telling me that they don't have enough money for the cancer foundation to find cures and to do research. I just wanted to let you know that I made a donation today for $100.00. The lady on the phone said you would be proud of me.



I love you mom - I wish you and dad happiness in Heaven.



Love you forever,



Cathy

Mom, I was just thinking about you and I wanted to tell you I love you very much and I miss you.



Love you,

Cathy

Dear Mom:



Happy Birthday - I can't believe that last year at this time we were together having a good time at your favorite place. I can't believe that you are gone. I miss you so much. I still catch myself calling your phone number to talk to you and then I remember that you are no longer here and I hang up.



I think about you every day and how much I miss you. I carry your picutre in my purse.



Mom, I really really miss you and I am having a hard time with everything I wish I could talk to you and see you.



I hope that you and dad are watching over us. I love you both very much and will never forget you.



Happy Birthday Mom, I love you.



Love always,



Cathy

It is almost two months since you have passed. I really miss you, I think about you every day. I hope you are ok. I wish that you could let me know that you are ok.
