April 2

Dear Mom,
Has it really been 3 years since your eternal life began? At times it seems longer and at other times it seems just like yesterday. I just made mention to Carri the other day that my peace lily that was given me at the time of your passing is still growing and blooming and full of life. It's a constant reminder of you and it brings me great joy in knowing it lives on as do you in my heart and thoughts. I miss and love you so very much mom and I wish you were still here with me, with all of us.
I trust that with eternal life we are spared any negativity and sadness so I will only speak of good things. Me and mine are doing well and enjoying life as it comes. The grandkids are continuing to grow and find their way in life. Lil Jacob did get his drivers permit and is excited to drive at a moments notice. He starts football this week and is excited to get back into it. Adrianna is preparing her lamb for competition at the County Fair next week. Dennis and I plan to attend and be supportive from the stands. Tatum is... well lets just say Tatum is Tatum. She's still trying to find her way in adult life and taking it slowly one day at a time. Megan is preparing for a 3 month trip to Florida, where she will be attending Polygraph School starting on May 6th. It's going to be lonesome for them all while she's gone but thankfully between the phone and the computer they will not miss much. Big Jacob just started a new job and is doing great. He's moving up in the world of business and is testing the waters of being a white collar worker. So far so good. Carri and Tyler are doing awesome as well. Their jobs are status quo, however Tyler is always looking for Professional Growth Opportunities.
Dennis and I are planning a Laughlin Trip this month with Carri and Tyler, wish us all luck at the casino's. And yes..... Dennis is doing better since his hip surgery. He's actually excited about taking this trip and is encouraged to go. I'm hanging in there. Attended your church for Easter Service this past Sunday. A gentleman came up to me after the service and asked me if my mother went to this church. When I told him yes and gave him your name he identified himself. He said that he knew you and shared that he was the person who placed your ashes. He thought I looked familiar and he wanted to say hello and welcome me to the church. I was touched that he remembered you and me.
Not much else to share at this time mom. I do hope and pray you are well as is all the family and friends that have gone before me. You are loved and missed greatly and thought of always. Take good care and please send my hello's and well wishes to everyone with you.
God Bless you always mom and remember...
