Mom I love you so much and this hurts so bad. We had a wonderful life together through all the blessings and tragedies we experienced together. I took you for granted and that breaks my heart. I was always happy to hear from you phone call or text in person. What happened was not fair but in your darkest hour you fought harder then anyone I ever saw. Please forgive me I wanted every moment with you. I love you so much I was trying to ease your pain. You were a wonderful person and thank for being a wonderful mother. I will miss your voice your laugh and your morning notes of encouragement. You were home and now that is gone. Thank you so much for all of your love and sacrifice. I miss you love you Mom.

Thank you for every gift and cooked meal and the notes of encouragement you always left me. You are my home and you lived a wonderful life. The last several years with you were wonderful and blessed. I love you Mom

No girl could ever Dream of having a Best Friend
like you to share their life with. I met you in my 20’s, you took me under “your wings”, you were like a young mother to me and taught me so much about life. We have been through the happiest and saddest times together that life threw at us.
How Blessed am I that I got to see you days before you got sick, laughing and chatting it up with you. Little did I know that would be the last time I would get to see you, Hug and Kiss You, say I Love You Bigger! No matter the miles that separated us, the visits, phone calls and texts kept that bond of friendship between us. I knew I could always call you and you would be there.
My life is better for having had you in it. You are one of the most caring, loving, giving persons that God put on this Earth.
My Heart has a huge hole in it now but, I will always carry you along in life with me and cherish all the Memories you and I made together.
Love and Miss You Bigger…❤️
