Here we are on 7 month of you absence. Oh I can't tell you how missed you truly are.  I love you so very very much.Geez I hardly had time to grieve your passing when now I lost my only daughter Janza, I know by now she is with you. I pray you were there to hold her hand and to show her the way around Heaven.  OHHH MOM how I miss you and Janza sooo very very much. I never in my wildest dreams thought I would ever bury my own children.  My heart and soul are soo very broken and I still have NOT figured out how to carry on.  Even the mention of Janza's name sends me into another realm of thought.  I truly don't know how to carry on, I feel like I'm just going thru the motions of life. Mom,  please hug her, hold her. Guide her , kiss her and please please tell her how much we all miss her and love her beyond all we have. I pray you two are as  super close in Heaven as you were here in earth.  She adores you mom, she always has. I'm still watching for signs that you know I'm looking for, and Janza promiced to visit too before she left us. I'M WAITING to know that you two are together and safe.  Kyree, Chris, Willie and I  are struggling in their own ways but are learning a new normal or whatever you might call it. I'm trying my best to help them thru all this loneliness and pain and emptiness that we are all trying to get on with. 
I love you mom and Janza sooo much.  You  two were the most important women in my life and now I must continue without either of you,  please know I'll do my best even though I don't now what my best is just yet.  I'm trying to carry on.
Please continue to help me from up above. I love you both sooo much.  Until later...  love you both Cindy

I never imagined that this day would come and how fast it did. I have so many memories with grandma- too many to list. But i do have some favorites. 
I remember when i used to spend the night at grandmas house and we would eat dinner in the recliners. she only let us drink milk or water for dinner so good thing there was chocolate syrup for chocolate milk. After dinner we would grab some ice cream and sit in front of the tv and watch criminal minds. This was our routine, every time i went over. My favorite part about going over to grandmas was getting to sleep next to her in her bed and my least favorite was having to help her make the bed every morning- which had to be perfect (grandma don’t play about her bed). 
Grandma and I would gossip about all sorts of things, Tell me family stories, and explain to me the importance of things in life. She would make fun of me because every time i went over the first thing i did was go in the kitchen. I will miss her spontaneous baking. 
when i was a kid grandma used to take me school shopping and she took me to get my first eyebrow wax!! I love you endlessly grandma and i don’t know what i will do without you. I’m sad that you won’t get to see me get married or even hold my kids one day. But i am so happy that you are no longer in pain. You areso loved. Please walk with me as i continue this thing called life. I love you always

Lovely lady

My heart is broken for the loss of this lovely lady. I knew her through work for a lot of years & longer thru my dear friend Teri. She was so warm & kind & she always made me feel like family. I am sending hugs out to all who loved her. She will truly be missed by so many. 

My loving Gram...

We love u my Gram. We will FOREVER miss your contagious laugh and and beautiful smile and not to forget your love for your family and friends. Love u my Gram forever and a day, to the moon and back. 

" Mom, we'll always have Paris"

April 5, 2021
Mom and I took our first trip to Europe together, back in 2009' with a visit to Paris, France as one of our stops. One evening walking back to the hotel, just after dinner, it began to rain. Mom had forgotten her umbrella at the hotel and so we shared mine. Before I knew it we began laughing uncontrollably, hopping over puddles like little kids and we began to sing "Singing In The Rain" from the movie "Singing In The Rain", with Gene Kelly and Debbie Reynolds. It was something so simple and yet so memorable and so much fun! (The movie was just recently on TV and as I watched it I discovered that Debbie Reynolds in the movie plays a character named Cathy. WOW! How cool is that?)

It was a very special one on one moment with my mom that I will never forget. It was just ours. With 8 kids in our family finding those private moments with mom were few and far between. This memory always brought a smile to her face when we reminisced and one that I hold dear in my heart. I know it was special to mom as well. 

I love you mom, "we'll always have Paris".

Gone but never forgotten and always in my heart.
