The day came and went without you...and it doesn't get easier. Just knowing you're safe and sound in the Lord's Kingdom, make me happy!
I reminisce, I laugh and I shed a tear. You're never far apart and always in my heart.
Love you, Mommy

Mommy

The month of September has come and gone...it is a tough month, but every month, day, hour, minute and second without you is difficult. But to know where you are at the those exact times (with the Lord) is what keeps all of us going...because I KNOW we will see you in heaven. My Angel...God's Perfect Angel....
Love you, Mommy

There is no greater joy than the bond between Mother and Child. You gave life to me as I did for you...and the greater gift of Life from our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Heaven's gift is you!....
Love and miss you, Mommy

Ok, Jj, I had to find a more mature clipart without all the balloons, now that you are the big 20. I felt the presence of the holy spirit at your anointed time 6:03pm, it was amazing, nothing but joy, nothing but God! I thank Jesus for you, thank Jesus for you being my nephew, I love and miss you so much, your spirit lives on and on. I just can't imagine what a celebration you had today. You are never, ever forgotten, Auntie Nene, love and miss you still Jj. HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONATHAN, YOU ARE LOVED AND FOREVER MISSED! WE WILL SEE YOU AGAIN.

My little Johnny Wonnie. Happy 20th birthday! I can't believe I'm actually saying 20! I love and miss you so much! I know you had a blast today! Please keep watching over us. I love you little guy #seeyouwhenIgetthere :-*

He had an everlasting impression, with very few words.

How awesome it is to be in heaven with the Lord! I know what a special Angel you are because you were special here. This month has a double meaning, as I said before. It is your birth here on this earth and your birth in Heaven. I miss you...I know you are with us...watching over us all...thank you, Jesus!. I miss you and love you! Mommy

Another birthday coming up for you Jj, another day without you here with us, I know you would rather be there too, it's perfect and you're with Jesus and we are here, with never ending drama. We shall see you again, Auntie Nene love and miss you kid, STILL! Thank You Jesus. Glory to God!

Soon 2 very important dates will be approaching. Days I consider to be your birth on this earth and your birth in heaven. We serve a mighty God whose plan for our lives cannot be predicted. This world is changing so fast and getting more dangerous. It is so hard to say it, because I miss you so much, but Glory be to God that you are with Him instead of here on earth. I'm grateful for heaven's gate and your knew home. I love you, JJ...miss you!  Love, Mommy

Today is the our 31st wedding anniversary. It is also a special day for you as well. It is also my 20th anniversary of my baptismal, when I gave my life to the Lord. It is special because I was 8 months pregnant with you. What a double blessing it was for me because God's grace fell upon you and me on that day. I knew how special you were going to be and how you were going to be apart of God's master plan. Love and miss you so much. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY JJ.
Love, Mommy

MISS YOU SO MUCH! I still haven't gotten my days or nights together. Not the same with you to keep me on track. I'm trying...my Angel.

Love you, Mommy!

Just wanted to let you know how much I miss you man,
I know you already know that, love you so much JJ in
Jesus Name, I thank God every day for the gift of you
Til we reunite in God Kingdom, Love you always
Jonathan in Jesus Name, Dad.

Missing you everyday...can't stop thinking about. I thank God, that you are safe in His house. Love you, JJ
Mommy

My JJ, The NBA was a disappointing season...sad. But I know how happy you would be for your favorite player, Kevin Durant to be going to GWS. This would be an exciting year in bb. I know how much you loved the sport. I miss chatting with you about everything sports.
Love you and miss you, Mommy

Finally, got away for a vacation...your Dad and I needed it. I miss the good times we all had we went on vacation. It was wonderful times. I'm so grateful to the Lord that you are with him. This is world is getting crazier and crazier. Thank you, Lord. Keep a watchful eye over us all. I know God has given you (our Angel) special charge over us. We love and miss you so much! I can feel you with me. Hallelujah!

Father's Day has come and gone. I can see in your Dad's eyes how much he misses you. We will never be the same. You were a blessing to all who knew you, especially your family, who knew you best! A parents' love for their child...unspeakable, too many words (not sure if the dictionary can hold it all). 
Love you so much....
Mommy

We miss you so much Jj, I can see you now, taller, all into your studies and basketball, loving the Warriors of course, still and love you still Jj. Time may fly bye, but the pain of losing you doesn't get better. It just doesn't. Just wishing you were here too, but I know, you're in the best place ever. Thank you Jesus. And it is so.

Miss you! 
The Hales Fransican bb team went down state. So proud of them and I know you would have been also. Your Dad and I went to see them play. They got fourth place....Yay! Nice try fellas. The school is hanging in there with 37 students. God Bless them. 

Words cannot express how much I miss your smiling face. This basketball season is so exciting. Your knowledge of this sport was amazing...Thomas and I try the keep the conversation going in your absence. Love you JJ....I know your spirit is forever present....With all my heart...Mommy....

Laying flowers for you too Jj, Aunt Nene miss and love you more and more. Miss your smile and everything about you. Yes we are getting older, but you are forever young and I thank Jesus for you always and forever. Love and miss you still Jj!

JJ,
Today is my 54th birthday...I miss you. You would be the first to give me a hug and kiss and my gifts. Each year I get older is another year without you. But, I do hold on to all my memories. Birthdays and holidays are still weird without you. Love you so much, Mommy

Well, JJ, yesterday was superbowl 50 and it was boring. I know how much you enjoy sports, but this was a sleeper. Back to basketball. I wish you were here for this. I would love to know your comments. Thomas is funny and knows the game very well, but I know you would have this game down to a science. Miss you, Mom

When I think about the goodness of the Lord, I can't help think about you. So grateful for what God gave me. Thank you for being my son. What a joy I had being your Mom I miss you! Love you, Mommy

Jj, I think of you often, all the time, I look at your pic in the clouds and it warms my heart. Heart to Heart. Auntie Nene, love and miss you so, so much...God is so Amazing, Love Jesus!

JJ
It is so hard to watch sports without you. I know how much you enjoyed watching. I miss you so much, but I am happy that you are with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When I think of you, I can't help but smile. Love you so much! Mommy

HAPPY NEW YEAR!  A year of progress is ahead and its all about you.
What I might God we serve. How He gave you to me....and now how He wants me to share you with the world. Love you so much!

All the sports are so boring without you to talk with.....
Love you, Mom

MISS YOU!!!

LOVE, MOMMY

Love and miss you Jonathan. You are forever missed and loved. Love Auntie Nene.

Our Angel!

It's Christmas Jj and I remember your last Christmas, your brother brought you the DRose jumpers, you were so happy, the joy of your face was priceless. So special, so sweet. Christmas will never be the same without you and uncle J. Always, so bittersweet now and I can't imagine the Joy of Christmas you are having with Jesus, celebrating a Savior is born, thank you Jesus, praise the Lord. Love and missing you still and I'm sure you after opening all your gifts, you would be down in the basement with Thomas watching basketball and playing video games all day long. Love and miss you still my Jj. Auntie Nene

JJ,
You loved Christmas...What fun we had putting up the tree and lights. It is late in the month and I haven't put anything up. I miss you! As much as I try, my days are still off. Trying very hard to make with you. You kept me together. God is good! I thank him for you! Love you!!!!

This NBA season is so special...I know how much you would have enjoyed watching. I miss you so much...my walking encyclopedia of sports knowledge. This "new normal" is still hard to get used to. I'm trying. You were my rock....Love you, Mom

Today is Granny's birthday and she wants a little cake, reminds me our your birthdays and your cakes, such wonderful memories. Love and miss you still Jj.

Thanksgiving has never been the same without you and uncle J. I lol at your picture in glory and that's the ultimate thanksgiving. Love and you still Jj. Lex coming home too. Family is everything, so thankful to JESUS that you were part of our family. Auntie Nene love and miss you still.

The NBA basketball season has begun. I'm exciting more than ever before and I know you would have been too! We would be discussing how we think the Golden State Warriors remind me of the Hales Franciscan freshman bb team your freshman year...don't they? I miss you and your knowledge of sports trivia. Love you, Jj

Jj just thinking of you and all the costumes Mommie made for you. TeleTubby was the best, what a trooper, in your costume until the end of the party. So unforgettable, I'll always cherish forever, love and miss you still. Auntie Nene

Miss you! Every second, every minute, every hour...every day!
Love you, Mommy
