August 22, 2022.............another year has passed and all too fast!! I feel like once a week passes, it only seems like a day!! When we're young, it seems life just goes on one day at a time........and slowly!!  But after we've aged a few years, we sure grow up and realize the difference!! "GONE TOO SOON" such a beautiful and meaningful song! Mom.....my beautiful and sweet Mother, you are always in my heart and I miss you so very much! This morning a very strange thing happened. Something woke me up, and as I sat up in bed and opened my eyes, I saw two figures in the other bedroom
across the hall.....at first, I called out "Hubert". and then "Henry". They were
both standing still at the bedroom door looking my way......, but never said a
word! Then, before I knew it, a different figure was standing next to Henry,...
that was Diane. I was so taken aback that that should happen to me now. 
I must say that it would have been so wonderful to see 'you' standing there,
today, August 22nd, 2022!! 52 years since Feb 24, 1997.  You must know that you are in my heart and on my mind "ALL THE TIME". Sending love, hugs and kisses from my heart and soul.....always to you Mother!! 
FOREVER.........IN MY HEART MOM......YOU ARE ALWAYS IN MY HEART!!! 
AUGUST 22, 2022

25 yrs ago today, Feb. 24, 2022 .......wow!!  And now, I am approaching 79 yrs!!
Have just had surgery on my tongue (cancer). Dr. said he got it all out and that
no chemo, etc. was needed. It is at this stage of life, we really begin to count the days we have left. It kind of hits you like a hammer (BONG!!) wake up--DAYS ARE SHORT!!) I have loved you and always will Mom, and I pray to see you once again when it is my turn to leave this earth. With deep respect and
love always, your daughter, Linda

Here passes another year since you’ve been called home Mom! It is Unequivably astonishing how faster time goes as you grow older‼️☹️
It has been 24 yrs. since you left us………cannot believe how fast that time went! Makes me realize how much older we all have become. It really gives you a very different perspective on how we should live our lives‼️ A very dear and Very Special Friend recently told me to always remember the following words as we grow older and focus on them “”I am here with you ALL the time”.  These words truly help and encourage me everyday.!‼️ 
I am truly praying that we will be Blessed so that one day we will meet again
In Heaven forever with Jesus Christ and ALL OUR HEAVENLY BROTHERS AND SISTERS FOREVER AND FOREVER‼️✝️✝️✝️

Happy 109th Birthday Grandma. I miss you so much. You always showed interest in me, what was going in with me, and was so loving. I loved spending time with you ( though it was not often as you lived so far away), and helping with the apple pies...basically eating the scraps as we went along, LOL.....though there was always enough left for the cookies you made from the excess. I wish I had been given the opportunity to see you off to heaven at your funeral, but I was there in spirit. I miss your accent, your smile and laugh, watching you drink your tea and eat your toast dipped in molasses. Seeing your teeth in the jar of water, LOL. I will never forget as a young girl seeing that for the first time on the bathroom sink late at night. I did not know about false teeth then. I love you Grandma and look forward to our reunion in Heaven.

Twenty-Two years ago today (2/24/97) God sent his angel to take you and guide you back to your Forever Home above with Him. I always look for a
beautiful red cardinal in our Crepe Myrtle tree in front yard, and it amazes me
that it always arrives many times. I am thinking of you and missing you so much. Sending warm hugs and much love always, Lovingly, your daughter,
Linda.

Happy 108th Birthday Mom!! And yet - another year has gone by!! Time is
really going by too fast!! I have found yet another cousin of yours Mom - first there is Theresa (Pomainville) Drew - whom I found about 6 yrs ago; and last week I received this message thru Ancestry.com from a Nanette Mills. She told me her mother was Vivian Struck and her grandmother was Antoinette MacGregor! I just about fell over when I read that. I had tried so hard to find Sandy, Linda and Mary Gale MacGregor - but to no avail. I'm hoping now that Nanette has found me, she can give me some answers about your sisters children. Thinking of you often and missing you very much - but I know I have you in my heart always!! Love, your daughter, Linda

Thinking of you Mom very often with much love and sweet precious memories! Your Great Grandchildren (Celine Caitlyn and Hunter Ian) have been keeping Dennis and I EXTREMELY busy! Celine is now in 3rd grade (8-1/2 yrs old) and Hunter is in the 4th grade and will be 10 yrs old in December. Rhonda, Rodney and David are single. Both Rhonda and David are still single. Rodney married and had one child (Rodney Dennis) got a divorce after a year and a half. Later had two children with a very immature girl - not really marriage material. Rodney went to court and was awarded full custody of both children - the childrens' mother could only see children under "supervised conditions". So as you can imagine with Rod working "full time", there are plenty times he needs a break! So, we usually watch the grandchildren on weekends. At our age now that is getting to be a real challenge for us - considering their ages now!! Many times I get down and discouraged - I have a lot of pain from Arthritus in my hands and arms and having to keep up with an 8 and 9 yr old can be very discouraging!! Celine and Hunter are beautiful children and we love them with all our hearts

In humble love and deep respect always.

Have a Heavenly 104th Birthday!!

I miss you so Mom. I think of you several times a day. I wrote a story to attach to this tribute, but lost it due to computer - so in a few words Mom, your whole family misses you and is letting the whole world know it. We LOVE you and look forward to seeing you again. We All know you loved us.  Always in our hearts......forever, Your family.....
