My mind is seeing Christmas of days gone by with  you in the kitchen …and your blue lights on the tree you loved so much. Most times at Christmas we had snow on the ground and deep, you’d love to spray snow on the windows and candles placed to shine through.The best ever carrot cake you’d make… with walnuts we gathered and delicious homemade fudge. You liked to make the Turkey at night so when morning came it would be just right. Your perfect touches were done with love. With Christmas shows on TV with songs a blare you’d be singing so loud it would fill the air. The magic you made on Christmas Day was like no other. … I’ll always remember my Angel Mother. Every day in every way. Merry Christmas in Heaven Momma. You in good hands up there  and loved so much here 

My heart is between broke and numb. The strength I have is truly from God. Mom has taught me to always look to Him and with her passing she is making sure I do. I will always have her with me... I’ve heard her voice a million times even when she wasn’t near me. Her strength was beyond measure   A woman who would stand against all odds and make life go on. Her bravery taught me to do the right thing even when I was scared or have done wrong. And that I was as good as the next person. My brothers and I she sacrificed herself for over and over.She didn’t mix words and was to the point. I feel blessed to have known her... and have had her as my Mother. And as strong as she was... she had the softest most tender heart. May I rise to match her quality... Mom I will see you later ( as your father would only say)  Your spirit is at rest in heaven with God our Father. I love you ♥️
