Happy Heavenly Birthday Mom. Love you and Miss You. 

Happy (belated) Heavenly Birthday Mom. 
Ben and I visited you and Dad, on your birthday. Sorry I'm late posting this meant to do it earlier, but I had gotten tied up with to much external things.  I cant begin to explain how much I miss you (and Dad) and I wish I could just sit and listen to you tell me anything.  L.Y.M.Y  ~ Kelly

Happy (belated) Birthday, in Heaven Mom. I was out of town on your birthday this year but thinking about you all day. Stopped by the cemetery the next day to pray. L.Y.M.Y.

Missing you and thinking of you mom.  I will be home soon (I'm moving back to Okmulgee in the next few days). Love you, Miss you.

Mom, it would have been the start of your 86th year today if you were still with us. I miss you so much more with each passing year. I pray for God's grace for you and for Dad and I hope by some miracle, that someday in the not too distant future we will reunite in the loving arms of our Lord. 
"LY MY"

No matter how many years you are gone you are never forgotten. What you taught us will be with each of us all of of our lives. I can only hope that I can have a positive effect on my own children. Love you always

Missing and thinking of you today mom. I still wish I could pick up the phone to call you and tell you what's going on and find out how things have been. 

Happy Birthday Mom. I'm in Mobile now (closer to Teresa, Cherie and Rene). Still miss you and think of you often. I think how much you might really like it here in Mobile with all the flowers, the gardens, and the horticulture. Ly My (Love you, Miss you).

Mom, Happy Birthday.
I miss you and I think about you every day, and the way you formed me. As I walk around Seattle amidst the beautiful scenery and the snow-capped mountains, the sea and the blooming flowers, I think of you.

Mom it's been five years since you left us and returned to heaven to be with your mom and dad and family. I still miss you and want to call you all of the time. I'm still trying to live my life in a way that you would be proud of and I'm still trying to apply all of the many life lessons you taught us all.
Love you and miss you.

Mom, words are unable to express how much I miss you.  I take some little comfort in knowing that your beloved dog, Chloe has joined you in heaven and for you and her it is a joyous reunion. I did my best to take care of her over the last 6 + years but old age and arthritis eventually caught up with her.  But now I know she is free from pain and so happy to be at your side once again.

Each year that passes seems to help dull the pain from our losing you, yet the pain is still there, it's just buried a little deeper each year. 
I try to take comfort thinking about you looking down, watching over your family, while we continue on here upon this mortal coil. 
I think of you now getting to visit with more of your friends
and family who have joined you in heaven, day by day, year by year and I hope someday we will all be together once again,
Love, your son Kelly.

Time is often used as a way to measure events in life, but time stands still when someone we love passes away. It is forever in our hearts that we remember all of the wonderful memories we shared. But also the regrets of not having more. I love you and miss you and know you are at peace and in good company. Till I see you again, you are in my prayers

Mom, you left us 4 years ago yet it doesn't seem like it was that long ago when we last talked. I miss you more each year, but I don't know how that is possible. 

Until We Meet Again
by Unknown
Each morning when we awake
we know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.

Our hearts still ache with sadness
and many tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you,
your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we love you still.

There will always be a heartache,
and often a silent tear,
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.

If tears could make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts,
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing will be the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again. 

Think of you often, miss talking to you. Every time I think of cakes for special occasions I remember how delicious your homemade cakes were. No one can come close to yours. Love you

Happy Birthday Mom, I miss you more every day, every year.

Although You're Gone

Although you're gone, I'm not alone,
And never shall I be,
For the precious memories of the bond we shared
Will never depart from me.

Our love surpassed the ups and downs
And helped us along the way,
And that same love will give me strength
To manage this loss each day.

On my mind and in my heart,
Mom, you shall forever be,
For just as much as I am a part of you,
You are a part of me!

Miss you more than words can say.

It's been three years since you passed Mom.  I took some flowers out to you and Dad yesterday (I knew that my busy work schedule would not permit me to visit today). I still miss you and wish you were still here with us, guiding us and teaching us. But I know you are at peace and with our loved ones. I love you mom.

A lot has happened since your passing. I think and speak of you often. I credit your example of respect for life and strong values has helped me. You are loved and missed by all who knew you. Hunter asked me about you and I was honest with her. I was a little brat that you showed discipline, and love that needed both. Thank you

Happy birthday, think of you often you were a wonderful person thru and thru. So many great memories , thank you

Happy Birthday Mom. I miss you more and more everyday.

Everything she did was with unconditional pure love. So many remarkable talents she had and willing to share her knowledge. I think of her often and continue to realize how much she taught me.

Happy Birthday Grandma Maxine. My heart is warmed by memories of how good you always were to me and Cherie. Summer spent with you, Casa Bonita, backyard activities with family. You impacted us in wonderful ways. Love and miss you.

You are in my heart each time I make peanut butter cookies, chicken and rice, see my flowers blooming, and watch the birds. You were the best teacher of life. You will always be missed, and remembered with love.

It's been one year since Mom was called home to rest with our Lord and Saviour. I'm grateful she is no longer suffering but I miss speaking with her almost daily. 
We miss you so much mom! RIP.

Happy Birthday Mom. We miss you so much. You are in my thoughts everyday.

You are remembered today on your birthday, but thought of often. I know you are with Dad and our father. Love and miss your laugh, and cooking tips.

Mom also taught me so many things, not the least of which was how to work hard and appreciate hard work. She always believed that if you had a tough job to do it was better to go ahead and get it done quickly and relax later. Mom worked so hard to provide a good stable home life for all of us kids and as a child I never fully appreciated how much she and dad sacrificed for us kids.

She taught me so many valuable lessons that I know helped me be the person I am. She was a strong women with even stronger family values. Her streangth was only equal to her respect and love of all life.She will always be in our hearts and memories we share. Now she is at peace with Dad.
