God looked around his garden and he found an empty place. He did look down upon this earth and saw your tired face. He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest. God's garden must be beautiful; he always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering. He knew you were in pain. He knew that you would never get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb. So he closed your weary eyelids and whispered, "Peace be thine." It broke our hearts to lose you but you didn't go alone. For part of us went with you the day God called you home.

Mama, As you grace God's garden know that a special place was created for you here by your loving son-in-law Peter on the very day you left us. He tends to this garden with much love and we all cherish it. I'm missing your birthday wishes very much today and thinking of you as always. I love you, Cheryl xoxo
 

I don't come here as often as I probably should but it makes me cry, everytime!  (is the reason)  Not so sure I love the melody today, so I'm gonna change that - I love "sorry seems to be hardest word" because i LOVE YOU AND ELTON, MOM, FOREVER!!! 

Hope you made the rain today, as I said you could!  That was nice - and much needed.  Make sure there's a way Jamie can get up here for Sarah's wedding too!  Just a small request but I really want him to come up and be with all of us - I told him that - he can probably get a roofing job - quit a few days before and be here!  Sounds like a plan, right??  Hee Hee

Mom,

I know you were watching over me today and maybe even made me pause at the stage!  I couldn't move!  It was a tough day but a great day!  All that hard work has paid off and I have my degree - yahoo!  I'm going forward and will be back at this
"grind" in September.  Please help me make my decision with what to follow thru with.  I didn't write earlier - I was literally exhausted but here I am - back at it again at 1:30 a.m.  I kow you were with me today, I felt it and thank you for giving me life and brains - What a working combination that is!

Happy Mothers Day!  Kathleen Marie (Nikas) Wilbur (had to be third from the last today!)

P.S.  Steve fix up the entry - my mom would be mad and so would my BROTHER!
thank you, Administrator - (it's the legal in me)
 

Hello Cathy, it was great  being a part of your life.I'll always remember Sunday dinners,Birthday parties,Holidays, Christmas eve with Peggy and Dave,and vacations with Cheryl and Steve on the cape.Things you enjoyed were, diamond rings,scratch tickets,the lottery,Coors light,CuJo the nice doggy, Big Kevin,steak tip sub(large),glitter queen,QVC queen,crossword puzzles, reading murder mysteries, long phone conversations and of course Jeopardy.
 I think of the day I drove you home to Worcester once and got lost .I asked you if anything looked familiar to you, we were in the downtown area of Worcester.You had no idea were you where,you sheepishly answered nooooooo!! I asked are you serious and she said yessss, don't ask me again. Luckily we ran into the Lamp Lighter club and home was around the corner.  
Christine moved you to N. Andover to care for you, your last years.She put her heart and soul into it and would do it all again .Your life had joys and hardships. We all know it wasn't an easy life. The last days of your life were a physical struggle, we all hurt for you,I hated seeing you sick. You have a new home in heaven now.Our day will come, i know you'll find us and show us the way to heaven. Love Peter 007

     We really did have some fun times, Kathy. It's very hard to believe a year has past. You know, you're still watching the birds in Harwich. God Bless!
