Mom

February 3, 2019

Mom,

 I miss you so much everyday. I know in my heart your with the angels but in my mind...your still in your room napping. You rested a lot towards the end. I am so greatful that you were able to get out with us and do all the fun fun stuff you enjoyed doing your whole life. From hunting to fishing to camping and bingo. Those are just a few. I got to hear you say to someone else how proud you was of me. For that...I’m grateful. We had moments and adventures that nobody could ever understand but us. Arizona? Let’s go. Anything for you. No AC, 2 kids and 2 dogs. your feet in a bag of ice on the floorboard because they were swollen from the drive and you trying to wipe the sweat off my face with a dirty wrung out sock that you had just taken off your foot. Your we’re trying to cool me down and care for me when all I wanted to do was care for you. Needless to say a wet sock in my face while driving 90 mph to get you to a rest stop to stretch. The fun and excitement we had. That is just a simple brokedown version of just one of our shenanigans. Your bright ideas and I was all aboard. Heck....we even turned nick into a bingo queen. I love and miss you momma and promise that everyday for the rest of my life, I will continue to make you smile. Just watch over all of us and guide each and everyone of us in the right direction. We’re all gonna need your guidance at some point in our lives. Rest peaceful mom. I love you so much. Forever in my heart. Ps kiss daddy 

Cherished childhood memories

I remember staying the night with Carla at the house on Tyler. Rose made the best food! I specially remember the meat stuffed sweet rolls. No clue what it’s called but it was delicious. She was not afraid to speak her mind and had the biggest heart. She always had us cracking up. Me and Carla would be pranking Andy and she would say “ leave that man alone” Oh those were the good ole days!! Tyler was the place to be when the whole fam damily lived on that street.

Like family

I have so many beautiful memories of Memaw but one thing that sticks out to me is that she ALWAYS had everyone’s kids including ours. When I went back to work after the twins we left the twins with Memaw of course we did who else would we leave them with right? She has bounced every kid on her knee and loved it. I asked Memaw only 1 thing when leaving the twins and Alyssa. “Please don’t give them any soda” So naturally she would sneak her babies anything they wanted including soda. Dusty and Nick lived down there on the Newell house and one day I came home from work early unexpected and when I pulled up Rose looked shocked. The boys were in their diapers covered in dirt. I mean covered!!! Little Hayden had a soda can and they were as happy as any kids could ever be! They were riding in the tractor with Uncle Nick and having the time of their life. In that moment I realized this was a normal thing and they would usually have them bathed, dressed and “presentable” for me when I pulled up but before that these 3 kids that I loved with my entire soul we’re having the best time. Dirty, naked and drinking Memaws Cola! I am so thankful to her for spoiling my babies. I am thankful for her bouncing them on her knee I am thankful for her teaching them what a Grandmas love is but mostly I am thankful for her not listening to me! Thank you Rose for raising the most amazing man that I get to grow old with. Rest easy knowing he is the most amazing husband and father. Rest easy knowing we will make sure her memory stays alive everyday in the eyes of her legacy.. these babies! 

I love you from the bottom of my heart thank you for being a Mom to me too! ❤️

I will miss u Sister in Law  forever. Remembering all the good times of BINGO and hunting and fishing.

Once,  when we went elk hunting I shot a bull elk up in Saddle Mountian. Went running back to the Blazer to get my knife and leave my heavy  gun with her. I told her what I had done and told her if Dellmar  and Mardell made it back to the truck to come help me. She laughed and said “did you see him go down for sure?” Yes Rosie he’s dead. She said “now the work begins to pack him out. Get to packin’ the fun part of shooting is over.  She went looking for the guys to help me. She was the best cook when it came to wild game. Back strap was her favorite. I will forever miss the times sitting around the camp fire in Central Oregon sharing hunting stories. Then, there were the latest horror movies, we use to rent and have snacks into wee hours of the morning. Love until we see each other again in the hear after. Happy trails dear Sister. ❤️

-I think life can be difficult, we ALL have our challenges... whether we're not getting along or facing other difficult challenges in our life. The fact of the matter IS family members get sick, people get older, you don't ALWAYS get the job or that promotion you want. Through each conflict in our life and really...LIFE is about our resilience and your ability to go through your life and all of the ups and downs with a positive outlook. It is ALL about quality of life and the BEAUTY of life. It is a laugh or a smile of a child, the love of a mother, grandmother, the joy of a father, the TOGETHERNESS of a family. It is the ADVANCEMENT of man, the victory of Jesus, the victory of a just because I LOVE YOU, and the triumph of truth.


-Love each and everyone of you and my heart goes out to ALL of you.

Sister love

Rose is was my oldest sister, I know we are all getting older but it’s still hard to lose my big sister, I know it’s a fact of life.but it still doesn’t make it any easier. Rose you have my heart and  soul . And I know we will meet again, and I have to say my favorite memory of us is the one day I will never forget just a few years ago  , you lived down by the St. John’s bridge and Dorothy lived in the house next door. I came down to visit, have a cup of coffee with you and I brought mary with me, it was such I beautiful sunny warm summer day. So we sat outside talking and laughing about memories of mom  ,dorthy joined us and as we sat there talking sandy Bailey walked up and says wow all 4 of the gallagher girls are together again , I remember looking at all of you and thinking , wow she’s right all my sisters are here with me , I had never felt so much love in my heart as I did at that moment of time. This is the most special memory I will never forget, and I thank the lord above for giving me that special moment of time. Rose till we are all together again I love you big sis. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
