Mom,

It's been one month today that you left us. The silence at your house, the missing of your near daily phone calls to see what is going on and how the kids are doing, seeing you drive down the street going to the store are all things we miss. It's been a month and it hasnt gotten any easier. I look at your pictures, talk to you and feel your presenace every day. I know you havent forgotten us as we will never forget you.



Be in Peace, Mom. I Love You.

To my dear Auntie Marilyn,

You have always been my very favorite Aunt and I am going to miss you tremendously. One of the reasons we bought our home was the fact that you were just 3 doors down. You were taken from us much too soon, and I am still having trouble coming to grips with the reality of it all. I am glad that you didn't have to suffer very long and that I was able to be there to help in your care. I never thought the day would come that I would be taking care of my dying Aunt, but I was proud to have been there for you, as you have been there all of my 50 years. Love always, LuAnn

Mom,

What can I say. You were there for me in every way. You supported me and loved me no matter I had done, said or told you. You taught me when to stop, and when to go on. When to love and when to be loved. When to speak and most importantly, when to listen. We talked about things that I have not shared with anyone else to this day. You were more than a mom to me, you were my friend. I am not ready to let you go, yet I gave you the go ahead to leave. Call me selfish, but I dont think I am ready to be without you just yet. You are out of pain now and are free and that is what is most important to me, you are happy. As I pray for you, please pray for me, as we never know when the day will come when you and your "little boy" will be together again.



I Love You and will always miss you, Mom,

-Jamie
