It just doesn’t seem fair that you are not with us in the flesh anymore. You will always be with me in spirit though. I talk to you often and miss you very much. I know when it comes my turn to see our Heavenly Father, you will be there waiting for me as well. My faith has really helped me to deal with this. I love you dearly and miss you even more.
Love always,
Your baby girl

Mom,
I just can’t get over the fact that you have passed on. I know it is selfish to want to keep you here on earth when you have an eternal life in heaven with the love ones who went on before you. I know you are rejoicing. I will take the memories with me forever. I love you so much and I can’t wait to see you again one day. That I know will happen because that is a promise from our Heavenly Father.
In your last days here on earth, I never left your side. You were surrounded by your love ones as well.
Go rest now and enjoy your reunion in heaven. No more pain and suffering.
I love you and until we meet again....
Your baby girl,
Diane

Polly was an inspiration to all who knew her, she died as she lived, with grace and compassion. She will sorely be missed by her husband, children, grandchildren and many, many family members. May she forever rest in God's holy arms.
