Hi Mom,
It has been 11 years since you went to Heaven. Miss you and wish you would send a beautiful sign or show up in my dream. Love you forever.

Dear Mom, 

Happy belated birthday. I wrote on Facebook for your birthday but was really busy with the Christmas meals, shopping and cleaning. I miss you and I so appreciate everything you did to raise me. I hope you are enjoying paradise and if you get a chance I hope you, Dad and Ralph could send me a sign. I am having surgery tomorrow and I hope I heal really fast, so I am not too much of a bother for Ralph. Love my family and all my family that is watching over us. Sending love to you, Dad and Ralph. 

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom. You are missed and I think of you often. I hope you and Ralph are enjoying paradise! Keep us in your prayers and send me a beautiful sign that you are okay. Love you!

Dear Mom,

I hope you had a wonderful birthday in Heaven. We all thought of you on your special day. I always think back to all the birthday and Christmas celebrations we were able to spend together. Sending my love to you on this day and every day!

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom. I have been thinking a lot about you lately. Jack has been very sick and has lost his partner so we actually did reconnect. He calls me a lot as he is very lonely. I know you are probably happy to see your children get along. I know I pray that my children will always love each other and offer support to each other. Ralph has been very sick lately too so if you could pray for him and also Jack that would be wonderful. Thank you for everything that you did for me and all the sacrifices that you made. I do appreciate your beautiful and generous heart. I love you!

Happy100th Birthday Mom. Miss you and I do remember so many of your words of wisdom. You were the most generous person I knew. You always gave from your heart. I hope you are able to connect with all the people you love and I wish you could leave me a sign or a beautiful dream that you are happy and are at peace. I love getting signs from my loved ones. I love you! Give Ralph my love too!

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom. Thinking of you today and remembering all the birthdays that we celebrated together. Please pray for my family and I hope you will give me a sign that you understand all the suffering that our family has endured. I love you.

Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom. I found two cards that you sent to me and I believe that I found them on your birthday for a reason. I know you understand how I am still so very sad on losing Ralph. I love and miss you too but no parent should have to lose their child. Please pray for our family and have the best heavenly birthday filled with peace and love.

I had a beautiful dream of you and that you and Ralph were together. Caitlyn saw a beautiful rainbow on the 3rd anniversary of your leaving us. I definitely believe it was a sign to let us know that you are watching over all of us and praying for us. You know how devastated I am feeling on losing Ralph and I know you would be giving me such wonderful words of wisdom.  I know you had lived a wonderful life and I ask you to pray for me as I am still so sad in losing my son. It is not the natural order for any parent to have to lose their child. Thank you for your love. I miss you and I love you.

Remembering all the Christmas and birthday memories shared. I know you would be heartbroken for me in losing Ralph. Love you and miss you.

Missing you. You would really enjoy this beautiful weather we are having this October. My rose garden is still blooming and we all miss you. We still refer to your room as Grandma's room.  Love and miss you. Ruthann

A beautiful funeral mass was celebrated on June 3rd. It was a honor to give this gift to you on my birthday. Thank you for the gift of my life and for all the life lessons.

You will always be my sunshine! See you soon! Love, Chloe

Mom- Missing you.

I love and miss you Mom. It is very hard to put into words all the gratitude I feel in having had you in my life. It was a honor to have you as my mother; and I am so happy that I was able to take care of you as you took such good care of me during my lifetime. You left a wonderful legacy with your faith in God and love of family.

Grandma, Thank you so much for everything that you've done for me throughout my life. I feel so blessed that my three children came to know and love you as I have. I am sad to say goodbye but I am at peace that you are in heaven with Grandpa and your family. Thank you for coming to "visit" me on Chloe's birthday, the day you entered heaven. It is a gift that I will treasure forever.

How do you put a lifetime into 392 characters? I'm remembering things like an adicack..swimming in the pool, macarconi on sunday's(even poolside)..chocolate covered easter eggs,(I should have learned) trips to PA., stopping for pies, Fort Lauderdale & Boca, the big blue buick, Laddie & Charlie Brown, Sunday night phone calls, handmade blankets...I remember...I truly do..Luv & miss u .

"Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”

Grandma, I was blessed to have you around as when I was 1 you saved my life from choking. I cherish the last 5 years where we got to hang out and laugh together. I remember being a child and you bringing me to the corner store for candy. I am glad I was able to re pay some of the joy by bringing you yogurt. I know Hope is thrilled to have you in heaven with her. She loved being around you.

Surrounded by the love of those near and far, in a room full of angels, music and the scent of roses you took your journey home. It was a gift to be able to be with you in your final days. To witness the love and strength of your family, the Mercy of our God and the fact that love transcends all place and time, Thank you Grandma for allowing me to walk you HOME.
