I think about you and Ma a lot, especially this past Mother's Day weekend. I bought some tulips for the occasion. One bunch was yellow and the was red with orange. They brightened up my my weekend.

Mom, I've made countless attempts to express how much you are missed but its impossible. There isn't any accurate unit of measure that could come close to describing the void in my life. I look in your granddaughter's eyes and instantly think of you because you always wanted me to have a baby girl. I hope that Victoria grows to love me as much as I love you. Thank you for the years of unconditional love, priceless life lessons and amazing memories you left me with. You are in my mind and my heart every single day. I love you and miss you more with each passing moment.

Carol was like the sister I never had. We hit it off immediately and became amazing friends. I'll miss her humor, her smile, our endless emails to one another, going on trips with her, her advice. I talk to her often in prayers and every year I dedicate my cancer walk to her honor. I know she is watching over all her friends and family. Her passing left a hole in my heart that will never recover

Carol, I got the chance to be close with you in our earlier years but I'm glad that later on in life you've become closer to our other two brothers.
I'm going to miss you. Watch over us! Give us a sign if we're doing something dumb. I'm already missing you. I love you. Jim
