Merry Christmas Momma! We had a very " Nona" Christmas as you know. Your spiritual presence was felt and your physical presence was missed. I could still smell your perfume on the tissue paper in the boxes as I unwrapped your decorations. Loving you very much today and always. Love, Pappy

Oh Mother, I am very much thinking of you today, especially with this thunderstorm (was that your way of reminding us of this day)? I'm always honored when people compare me to you and all your wonderful characteristics regarding love, family, energy and loyalty. I am definitely your daughter and I miss and love you more than you know. You are with me everyday as I grow old. Love, Sweetpea xo

Well Mama... as I sat here to write this I am listening to Pandora radio, while it is raining.. and what song comes on? There's a Bad Moon On The Right! And I smile as I remember that as one of "our" songs... you used to sing "There's a Bathroom on the right", when it came out! So , I KNOW that you know I am thinking of you, loving you, and missing you. My heart misses you so much..wish you were here with us. Love, Pappy

Happy Birthday Momma, Well, as you already know I came by and had coffee & breakfast with you, just like old times. I hope you liked the "Frankie" card. I knew it was meant for you when I saw it. I did what you would have wanted me to do for your birthday. I took Rhonda out for a good time, well actually she took me out! LOL.. But we miss you so very much! Every day I wish you were here.

Well, my goodness, Fran! I had no idea you'd passed from this life. Bruce and I had tried to find out for years where you'd ended up in Florida, and I just happened to "google" your name yesterday, and found this beautiful site that Patti set up for you. As your extended Houston TX family, we are feeling very sad this evening, but know you are with God now. Love to you and your family.

Momma, you know how many times a day I talk to you, and tell you how much I miss you. Living a few blocks away from your place gives me comfort, as I feel you are close by. All the talks we had still play in my head. I miss you so very much, and wish that you were here every second. I will always do my best to keep all your traditions going. Thank you MOM for everything you did.

Hello Mommy. I think you know how hard this has been for me Internally through the past 2 yrs. Although you and I have a connection everyday and I feel you with me all the time, it still saddens me everything you have missed with us. I know you are here in spirit and I miss you all the time, I love you so very much. Thanks for my frequent feather visits :)

Hi Momma....thinking about you today as I do everyday..and trying to go to the happy times that we shared....and not dwell on where we were at this time last year....your number 11 is a common denominator in all our lives now and we know that YOU know that! Of course I miss your physical being, but I love that you are with me everyday in every way. I hope your wishes for the fam come true.

Merry Christmas Momma, I put up your fiber optic tree and a few other little decorations I kept... I tried to put a bit of your flair on the gift wrappings this year, but nothing nor no one can hold a candle to your talent in that area! Wow.. I miss you so very much and wish you were here in person. I know you are all around me all the time but it just isn't the same. xo Pappy

Well Mom, today is the luck of the Irish but it's always a sad day for me. I've thought about you the entire day today with so much regret and sadness. Regret that you didn't get to know all the Grandkids and have more time with us, sadness because you aren't here to enjoy life with us. So many things have changed since you've been gone, a lot of good and some not so good. You know what they are and I know how sad you must be. But life is life and people are people and I continuously shake my head! I miss you terribly and love you so much! Thank you for my 11:11pm tonight. xoxo

Happy Birthday Mama! Looks like you've got a special person with you and he's staying indefinite. I'm sure you both are partying it up, up there in heaven. But down here you are so deeply missed. I miss you more than you know. I wonder ALL THE TIME what life would be like if you were still here. I know it would've been much better with much more laughter. I'm sure you would be having the little kids over for sleepovers every weekend! I love you my beautiful Mother and please keep watching over me. I feel your presence all the time. Love, Sweet Pea

Mom & Her Mom

March 17, 2017
by Patti Oriot

I remember Mom telling me about how much she loved her Mom. She grew up in harsh conditions in Brooklyn, NY doing without a lot and enduring a lot. But she told me that no matter what; the one thing that was always on her mind, was how to make things easier for her Mom. She recognized the sacrifices her Mom had made along the way. Mom told me to remember that you only have 1 Mom, and one day she will be gone; and you will think of all the things you didn't say, and all the things you wish you didn't say.....so Mom, today.....when I think back to that conversation we had.... you were so right.... I wish more than anything that I had more time with you.....to say those things...I love you.... Patti

If It's Paper....

One of my great joys at working at If It's Paper... was working with Fran.  Here we are at one of my Mardi Gras parties in Houston - Randy, Fran, Jeremy (hiding), Michael, Beverley Sutton, and me.

The baby fell and hit his head...

Only Mom and I know how hilarious the title of this story is. I can't explain it here because no one will "get it". But it was one funny moment for sure. We had so many laughs for years and years over this, and see, I still think of it. Just in case you are curious, we were reading a story in a true confessions magazine, lol, I know, most of you don't even know what that is! Before National Enquirer ! Anyway, there was a run on sentence and we just howled at how we thought what it meant. Funny, of all the things I could write about today, that is what comes to my mind. I guess Nona just wanted me to remember something funny, and not be sad today. I love her. Pappy
