Mom-we grew up going to the beach every year. I love it because we vacationed there as a family and because you loved it so. But much more importantly we grew up going to church and you and Dad raised us all up in the way of the Lord. That gave me a solid foundation for life, a love of the Lord, and a Savior forever. There could be no better gift to leave us with.
We will always remember the great things you did for us-the bread you used to bake, the cow bells you used to ring as our fan at our athletic endeavors, the costumes you made for us on Halloween that brought us prizes, the holiday gatherings we had always with extended family, and the Christmases that were beyond the imagination of any child but always with Christ at the center. Thank you for all of that and more.
You were my heart. I will always love you and will miss you every day for the rest of my life. I will be listening for your harmony....and will join you once again some day in singing.
