Though our grief over Granny's passing is strong, our bonds to one another grow stronger each day. She will always be remembered and greatly missed. 'Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.' - Matthew 5:4

Rest in Peace Mom. Thinking of you today. Always missing you. Loving you always. The tears still flowing, regret pains me for all left unsaid but I hope that somehow healing comes someway yet for now I feel lost and try to make sense of it all and not to give up. Love Renee

I can't believe it has been two years already since Mom passed away. Mom, I think about you all the time. Your words of wisdom, your insights, your belief in doing what was good and right, your tolerance for difference, and your lack of tolerance for bigoted, mean-spirited people are with me all of the time. Through your stories, you will live forever. We love you.

Today's the 2nd yr with mom gone. I feel saddened that tributes have not been left by my children and grandchildren and other family members who said they don't know what to say and that's okay. I understand their grief and this site will remain up forever and they can whenever they want to write something. For me it is such a hollow feeling to be orphaned. Her passing left a big gap in our lives that tears cannot ever fill and nothing seems to heal that. I am just glad she is in a better place and no longer suffering.

Today would be her 95th birthday. We had a chance to say goodbye 5 days before she passed. We smiled and talked and kissed each other on the cheek. We said "I love you" to each other. When she took her last breath I was at her side with Amber, Christine, Arthur, Mike, Kim, and the nurses. She is singing in the choir up there in heaven. Smiling.
Telling me "Not to ever give up"

Though Granny Esther is no longer with us, she is still remembered. I remember with joy her beautiful smile and soft skin. What I wouldn't give to be able to hug her again!

Today April 7th is the one year anniversary of mom's passing. Thou mom is gone, her memory lives on.
With her death leaving many regrets I promised myself to no longer fret. But to live a better life, not filled with strife, but instead strive to live a life of love, hope, charity, and forgiveness. . . . . in her memory.

***Today mom would be 94ys old. My thoughts are of her today and as I hear the song playing I can see her up in Heaven playing this song on the piano and smiling down at me. My tears feel bittersweet yet I know she would want me to continue to improve myself and live as happy as I can, and to, "Never give up"

Wishing you were here Mom. I left a story on this site today about Easter
Sunday 1957 when Ray, Dickie, and I
got baptized. Thinking of you today and wishing you were here but know it was your time to rest in peace in Heaven. So as I wipe the tears from my eyes today I realize that. Love, Renee

Happy Birthday Mom! We miss you so much, your laughter, your humor, your stories, and your singing. You loved to sing and I remember your beautiful singing voice in the house, at church, and other gatherings. I remember once when I was in L.A. visiting Richard in the nursing home. It was a Sunday and there must have been a church service going on because we heard the singing of "In the Garden" down the hall. So you and I and Richard started singing with them, "... and he walks with me and he talks with me and he tells me that I am his own..."  We miss you, Mom, and Fontaine still talks about how kind you were to her. Love you.

Easter 1957

March 31
Remembering Easter Sunday evening 1957 when Ray, Dickie, and I were all baptized at Panorama Baptist Church in Panorama City, California at 7:00 pm. You were so proud Mom of us as we three had made our decisions to do it. You and daddy had already done so and it made you very happy that we did too. You beemed with pride in front of the whole congregation and every Easter I recall that day and the happy smiles on your face and daddy's.
Today as I recall this memory I do so with tears in my eyes but at least I know you are in a better place. Love always, Renee
