Hey Mama, I miss you so much. I cannot believe it’s been 12 years. There isn’t day that goes by that I don’t think of you, miss you, need you. I hope you are watching over us all. Love you and miss you so much. 

Hey Mama!

12 years since the lord needed you with him, 12 years since I hugged you and 12 years since we had a simple phone call. Even though I know that you are with me everyday, I still miss those little interactions. Please say hey to Dad for me and let him know that I miss and love him as well. Love and miss you everyday mama.

Love always,
Michael ♥

Hey Mom!! Time travels so fast, I cannot believe 11 years has passed since that tragic day. I will never forget that day and I will never forget my cherished memories with you Mom. Please continue to watch over us and take care of us during these tough times. Please tell Daddy that we said hey and that we miss and love him very much. Love and miss you deeply Mom...everyday.
Forever and Always,
♥ Michael

Hey Mama, it’s been a while since I talk to you… I’m sorry. Trust me…there’s never a day that doesn’t go by that you aren’t crossing my mind or when I just wish we could talk. Of course you’d be worrying about us… and again I’m so sorry for making you worry during my teenage years (Huck & Lucie are running circles around me (: )!! I love you so much and still miss you something awful. Hopefully you’re looking down and placing your hand for guidance where we all need it?? Chip is doing good as are the kiddos. Huck is trying to figure out how to set a path in his life and Lucie is treading through crazy teenage days?!? She just got back from Yellowstone and had an amazing time. Miss your hugs, good advice (I could use it), and your beautiful smiling face!! Please continue to watch over us all!!
Love Kimbo

Hey Mom, happy Mother's Day!! I miss and love you very much. I hope you and Dad have meet up there in heaven. Please tell him hey for me and that I miss and love him too. Thank you for being here with us and looking over us Mom. I miss you very much, Tell everyone that I said hey. Love you Mama!!
Love Always, Michael ❤️

Happy Birthday Mama, hope you are doing well!! We all miss and love you very much. Wish you were here so I could get a big hug on your birthday. We have a new family member and his name is Mason James Todd. I know you would adore him because he is so cute and he would love his grandma!! Every day, I wish, that I could pick up the phone and call to hear your voice. I miss and love you and dad so much. I hope you guys have found each other and everything is well. Thank you both for being here with us and watching over us. I love and miss y'all very much. Talk to you again soon!!
♡ Michael

Happy Heavenly Birthday! Wish we were getting ready to have cake and give you all the wonderful gifts that we could. I would say deserve, but you deserve so much more than we could ever give! You gave this family more than you could ever imagine. Love and kindness and the compassion for others!! How I wish I could hear you say, "What's wrong?" One more time!! You always cared so much for everyone that you worried so much!! We love you so and miss you every single day! You would be so VERY proud of all your grandchildren!! Huck is a big college man!! Lucy; talented horsewoman, surfer and all-around beautiful inside and out!! Em makes me proud every single day! Colleges are recruiting right and left! But, looks like Disney's college program and Florida is the dream! (I just can't bring myself to say; Go Gators! quite yet.) LOL! Guess it will come.
Mark, Michael and Kim just miss you so much still. I hope the day comes when your name and memories only bring smiles not tears. You were the glue. For a while there I didn't know if it was strong enough without you, but they are getting it together. You did a wonderful job raising 3 strong people who are talented and successful!! Love you so much! Thank you for loving all of us. Happy Birthday!!

Hey Mom, I know it's been a while since I've posted on your site but I know that you are aware of all the situations we've been dealing with because you've been here protecting us. Today marks ten years since you physically left us. I cannot believe how much time has passed and I miss you more than ever. Ten years ago, I was hugging your neck. Ten years ago, I was telling you how much I love you. Ten years may seem like a long time but ten years is nothing compared to how long I will love you. I cannot begin to tell you how much I miss you but I know that you will forever be here with me. I love you very much Mom, more than you will ever know. Please say hey to Dad for me. I hope that both of you have found each other and have made peace. I love and miss you both very much.
Love Always, Michael ♥

Happy 70th Birthday Mama!!

I am sure that you are having margaritas while wearing your parrot hat today in heaven!! I didn't get a chance to have a margarita today but I will make it a point to have one with you soon! It's crazy to think how much time has passed even though it feels like yesterday. I know that you would say "I'm not 70" and I would happily agree!! Those are the memories that will live on and I am blessed for having them. Thank you Mama for the memories and love you have given me. I miss and love you very much and this day will always and forever be special.

Love Always,
Michael ♥

Happy 70th Birthday Mama!! 70 is such a milestone, and one I was we were throwing you a party for?! Dang I miss you so much... and wish I could share a new tequila drink Nicole shared with me. So much time, and so many special moments we lost by losing you so soon?? Your beauty on this earth is so truly missed! We love you so big, and miss you with all our hearts. 

Happy Birthday in heaven!! We miss you so very much! It's lonely without you here with us. We would have been with you this weekend having a wonderful time if you were not taken from us so soon.
I know you were the glue that held this family together. It seems that we are never together anymore. You were the one who settled all the fusses and the one who made everything better. You made us all belong to each other and it seems it's not like that anymore.
All the kids are growing up so fast!! Em has college plans already!! Driving was put on hold due to the virus, but she was able to get herself a car. She works so hard, you would be so proud of her!! I see Huck and Lucy on Facebook and they are beautiful!! Such great kids!!
We love you Sarah. It's not the same without you. It doesn't get any easier no matter what people try and tell you. The pain of this family losing you NEVER gets better. We are all without each other because we are without you.
Love and miss you, today and everyday.

Hi Sarah,
I meant to write you yesterday but it was a rough day for Mark. He was very emotional about missing you. He is so sad that the family isn't closer. I guess you were the glue holding everyone together. I was cleaning up my pictures and came across the pictures from the visit to the cabin when Em was a tiny little thing with pig tails and an LSU tiger jersey!! What a fun trip!! It made me think about all the visits and the trips to The Sanderling and what a blast!! You were so much fun to be with down there!! Hopefully Mark, Emmy and I can get everyone together next Summer!! We miss you so very much!! Love you forever and a day!!

Hey Mom!

Nine years, nine years since I've heard your voice or felt your hugs. Today has been a tough and emotional day. Thank you for being with Mandi and I while we put Memphis to sleep. Of all days, today was the day we had to say goodbye to him. It is a sign from you that he will be okay and you will take care of him. He is full of love and he will make you happy. We miss and love you very much Mom and even after nine years, your presence has never felt stronger. The love you continue to give lives on with us. Until we all see each other again, please watch over Memphis and tell him that we love him. We miss and love you very much Mom.

Love Always,
Michael♥

Happy Mothers Day Mom!

Hey mom, I wanted to tell you on this special day, that you are truly cherished, missed and loved by so many. Even though you were with us for a short time, you have touched so many with your heart and soul. Because of your love, you will live on forever through each of us. Thank you for watching over us during these hard times Mom and thank you for blessing us with your love. I miss and love you with all my heart. Please wish Mamaw a happy mothers day for me as well!

Love Always,
Michael ♥

Hey Mom, hope you had a very Merry Christmas!! We all miss you so very much. Christmas time with you will always remain near and dear to my heart. You always made this time of year so special for all of us. I remember the fun times like they were yesterday and I hope that one day, I can make someones holiday as special as you made ours. The greatest Christmas gift I could have ever received, was spending it with you. Please continue to watch over us and tell everyone that we said hey. I miss and love you so much Mom. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! I'll talk to you soon Love ♥Michael♥

Hello Sweet Sarah,
Thanksgiving has come and gone and Christmas is right around the corner! We miss you so much!! More during this time of year if that's even possible!! I know how much you loved these "family" holidays!! I miss those vacations at the Sanderling!! God what a GREAT time we had!!
I know this might sound silly, but I made corn on the cob tonight and made Mark cry. He said it taste just like yours!! That's such a wonderful compliment. I love you Sarah, miss you so much!
Carmen

Hey Mom! Just wanted to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. I think about you every day and the holidays always remind me of the great times we shared together. You know that you are in our hearts and loved by many. I miss and love you very much Mom. Talk to soon, Love Michael ♥

Hey Mom! I'm sure you are aware that Tony has left us to be with you. I pray that you guys find each other and are happy. Please tell him that I said hey and that I already miss him so much. With his passing, it reminds me of all the good times we had together. Oh Mom, I wish we had more time together in this world but that was not the hand that was dealt to us but I can assure you, that my love for you grows stronger with each and every passing second. Please continue to watch over us and protect us. Love you always and forever, Michael♥

Happy Birthday Mom!! I miss and love you with every passing day. Love Michael

Hey Mom! I can not believe, eight years have passed since I have felt your hugs. Words can not describe how much you are missed and loved by so many. Even though god took you away from us on this day, you are still, very much apart of our lives. The amount of love and guidance you gave us, will continue on forever. It is so hard to lose someone as special as you Mom and I want you to know, that I love and miss you very much. I will talk to you in my prayers and see you in my dreams! Love always, Michael♥

Well honey here we are again. Another year has gone by and you're not here with me. I can't get over how time goes by so fast. I remember that fatal day just like it was yesterday. I remember sitting in the hospital room holding your hand and staring at you, wondering why the Lord took you from me. I was very upset for awhile and hated Him for taking you. I really still can't comprehend why He did but there had to be a reason. I miss you Sarah, I miss you a lot and my love for you still grows each day. I love you so much honey it hurts and there is a void in my life and my soul without you. I know one day we will be together again and we will be able to walk across Heaven together hand in hand. I'll be able to see your bright smile and beautiful blue eyes. I love you Sarah and always will. You're my whole life. Take care honey. Until we are together again. I love you. :)

Hey mama....it's been a while since I posted on here, but we both know we talk, and that you're never far from my everyday thoughts. 
I know this day "June 13th" has always been a happy as well as a hard day for you after mewmaw passed. I'll never forget that day, and the pain of it. Even with that day being as painful as it was....I'll also never forget us being able to talk to mewmaw one last time when she called to wish me a happy birthday!!! Strong women/people aren't just born...they're raised, made, and built by loved ones, and life's up, and downs. I'm taking every ounce of knowledge you gave me, and using it to towards Lucie as well as Huck in how he should treat women. My whole life I was surrounded by some of the greatest women that walked this earth, and while I know all of y'all are still there....I surely miss having y'all here to help always keep me on track, which some days is hard. 
I miss you every day, but know how fortunate I've been to have had your love, support, guidance for as long as I did. I miss your hugs, your smile, your laugh, your need to make sure I'm on track. I know even when you were suffering through this day for many years after mewmaw had died...you always made my birthday special. Love you mama, always...and forever!!! Kimbo

Happy Mothers Day! So much has happened within the past year but I know you've been there with us through all of it. Mandi has been going through some rough times lately. She asks if you would please say hey to her grandfather for her. I miss you everyday and would love to give you a big hug. You've given me so much Mom and I hope that some day, I can return the amount of love to my family. We all miss you so much and want you to know that you are loved very deeply. Love you always, Michael

Hello Beautiful Mom-in-love!!
How I wish you were here! I would love to give you a great big hug today! Heck, I'd love to give you one everyday! OMG Emmy looks just like you. It would be so awesome to have you give me advice on what to do. Her homework has gotten too hard for me. Grandma's are so much smarter than us Moms are.
We miss you so much! Somebody said it gets easier, but they lied!! It doesn't!! Wish you were here every single day!! I love you sweet woman! So do each one of us!
Love you to eternity,
Carmen, Mark and Emmy

Happy Mother's Day honey. Wow, the time is going by so fast. I can't believe its gonna be summer already. It seems just like yesterday I was wishing you a happy new year. Well, I'm doing ok. I know I'm getting worse as time goes by. I can feel it in my body and how I have to rest between chores. I listen to that Alan Jackson song a lot, "I want to walk across Heaven with you". What glorious day that will be when you and I can walk across Heaven together. Well sweetheart, have a great Mother's Day and remember I love you very much and miss you like crazy. Until we are together again. Love you. ;)

Happy New Year honey. Well, its the start of another year, another year without you. I really hate not having you in my arms and seeing your smiling face. You are the sunshine in my day and starlight at night. I love you honey and always will. No one will ever hold a candle to you and I will always be your Tony. I love you honey. Have a great New Year and I'll see you in my dreams. :)

Merry Christmas Mom!! Hope you're doing well?!!? Christmas with you, will always hold a special place in my heart. I tell Mandi all the time, how special you made Christmas for us growing up. From decorating the tree to wrapping gifts, you always made this time of year memorable. I hope, that one day, I can give the same love to my family that you gave to us. You have given me the greatest gift that I will forever cherish every Christmas and that's you Mom. I miss and love you very much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!! Love always Michael♥

Merry Christmas beautiful Sarah. Your family misses you every day!! Holidays are especially hard on Mark. He misses you every day, but Christmas is really hard for him. Emmy is getting so grown up and is a wonderful artist. She loves to read just like you!! You would be so proud! Love you always!

Merry Christmas honey. Here we are, another Christmas apart. I miss you so much honey. The holidays aren't the same without you. I'm just lonely without you and there's no way to say anything else, I miss you very much. Its been very hard to put a smile on lately and act like I'm in a good place. Well honey, please have a great Christmas and remember, you are loved and missed. I love you!!!!

Hey Mom, Happy Thanksgiving!! Sorry for the belated tribute. It's been a very busy couple of weeks but I know that you know that! I can't begin to explain how much you are missed and loved by so many. The holidays can be tough but knowing that you are watching over us, makes the holidays more enjoyable. There are many things to be thankful for in my life and one of the most important thanks that I can give is to you Mom. You're always there for me and you've given me so much. There's not enough words that can explain how thankful I am for you being you. I miss and love you so much. Happy Thanksgiving Mom, love you always. Michael

Happy Thanksgiving honey. Here we go again, another year has gone by so fast and another holiday without the love of my life. I know I sound like a broken record honey but, I'm so lonely without you. No matter how you look at it, you are the center of my life and will be until we are together again. Today as I eat some of that "yankee dressing" I'll be thinking of you and how you smiled when you made it for me the first time. Well honey, I won't keep you. Have a wonderful day and have some Angel turkey and dressing and send one of you magnetic smiles my way. I love you sweetheart and always will. Until we are together again. Love, me.

Hey mama! It's been a while since I wrote, but you know it's not because I haven't been thinking of you. For some reason it's been harder this year to write? Wow...68? Damn...I would've done just about anything to have celebrated this with you. I miss you more than words can describe....but you already know that. I know you celebrated in true Sarah Beth style. Please never forget how much we miss your beautiful smile, spirit, and hugs. Love you forever, and ever...mama! Keep watching over all of us, and we'll continue to do our best to make you not worry about us.
Kimbo

Happy Birthday. You are missed so very much! I so wish you were here to see your successful children and grandchildren! Mark is doing so well! He has been getting involved in his Union and so many of the "Newbies" look up to him for leadership. He has been asked to run for Union Rep, but he is still studying so he knows more about the union and the rules and regs.
Emmy is growing up so fast!! She is still an animal lover! She loves all animals but those big exotic ones BEST!! Her favorite subject is Latin. She really enjoys it as well as English; must get that from you!!
Well, I'll say goodbye for now, but always know you are loved and missed.

Hey honey, I feel so stupid. I thought yesterday was your birthday and come to find out I was a day early. I've been under so much medication lately that I guess it effected my memory or I'm getting the old man disease, Alzheimers. Anyway, have a great day and please remember although I'm getting senile I will never forget you or the love we have for each other. You are my world and without you I'm a shell. Happy Birthday again honey and please forgive me for being a little early. I love you Sarah and will always love you. Until we are together again. ;)

Happy Birthday Mom!! A while back, I found an old video recording of me thinking of gift ideas for your birthday!! It was so funny!! If I couldn't afford a gift (because of my age!!), you would always say, "well son, you are my gift". It was those little things you would say or do that meant so much. You are the greatest mom any son could have and today is a very special one!! Don't have too many margaritas today!! Love and miss you very much!! Michael <3

Happy Birthday honey. Well here we are, another year has passed and I love you more today than I did yesterday. I will love you more tomorrow than I did today. Sweetheart, I miss you so much. I wish we could celebrate your birthday together. You are my life and soul honey. I miss your smile and those beautiful blue eyes that shine. Honey, I'm so alone without you. Each day that passes I ask God to watch over you until He calls me home. Well honey, Happy Birthday again and have a piece of Angel cake for me. I love you and always will.

Hey Mom! Today is one of the hardest days of the year for a lot of us. I know you wouldn't want us to be sad but you mean so much to so many people in so many ways. You are a Mom, Grandmother, Sister, wife and friend. You make it look so easy because you have the kindest spirit. I can only hope that I will have a spirit that is as strong and pure as yours. I miss and love you so so very much Mom!!
Love, Michael @--;--

Mama Sarah, heard your song a few times this week and thought of you. You are so greatly missed. Michael and I wish you were here to experience the adventure with us. But we know you are here in spirit. Love and miss you very much!

Well, here we are honey, the seventh anniversary of your passing. I can't imagine how fast time has gone by. I miss you so much. You are in my every thought and dream. It pains me so much to know how short our time was together. We had so much to look forward too. Honey, I love you so very much and always will. I downloaded a beautiful song by Alan Jackson, "I want to walk across Heaven with you". I can't wait for the day when I will be able to walk across heaven with you. I love you Sarah and I miss you so much. I know you're in good hands up there. So keep smiling down on me and I'll keep smiling up until we are together again. I love you.

Happy Mothers Day Mom!! Words cannot describe how wonderful of a mom you are. You've taught me so much and that will carry on forever. From the moment you gave birth to me, you've been with me through the good times and the hard times. I miss you so much, I miss our talks on the phone and I miss our hugs every time we saw each other. Thank you for being you and most of all, thank you for being my Mom. I've uploaded some pictures Kim found of you and the three of us. I'm sure you'll love them!! Happy Mothers Day Mom!! I love and miss you so very much. Love, Michael

Good morning honey. Just wanted to wish you a Happy Mothers Day. Its been very lonely here at the cabin. I think of you constantly and about our life together. It goes without saying honey, I miss you very much. I was thinking last night that our combined family is growing up fast. Its hard to believe that Christine, Justin and Huck are all 15 and Lucie will turn 10 next month. Time is going by so fast. I love you Sarah and will always love you. You are my whole being and I will forever love and miss you. Take care honey and have a wonderful day. See you in my dreams.

Happy New Year honey. Well its the start of another lonely year without you. Honey, I want to thank you for loving me the way you did. Your love meant so me and I still feel your presence with me. I reach a milestone this year, 70, wow the years have gone by fast. I miss you sweetheart and can't wait to see you again. I'll love you forever and no one will ever take your place. Well honey guess I'll go for now. Take care and keep an eye out for me. I love you.

Merry Christmas Mom!! We miss and love you very much. You always made sure that we had a fun and loving Christmas! I will be sure to pass that same love down to my family. The Christmas memories that you and I have shared, will always be the greatest gift you have given me. I miss you so much Mom. Merry Christmas and I love you!!

Good morning honey. Merry Christmas!! I miss you honey and I love you so much. It has been a long, lonely year without you. As each year goes by, they get lonelier and lonelier. Guess you saw all the snow we had at the cabin. Brought to mind the snows we had when we first moved there and had to get the road plowed so I could get you out for school. Sweetheart, I love you very much and I miss our time together. I miss your bright smile and beautiful blue eyes. Please have a wonderful day and keep an eye out for me. Love you!!! ;)

Hey Mom!! I wanted to wish you a happy Thanksgiving!! The holidays are always tough for Amanda and myself but I know that you would want us to be strong. We miss and love you very much and I hope you are enjoying Thanksgiving as well. Some of my most memorable Thanksgiving holidays was when we all got together at a cabin in Alabama. You gave me memories that I will cherish forever. Thank you Mom and Happy Thanksgiving, Love you!!

Happy Thanksgiving honey. Another year gone by and another holiday without you. I'm so tired honey, I miss you and I miss our time in the cabin. That was suppose to be our place to retire and enjoy life. I'm not enjoying it by myself. But, I thank the Lord for each day that he gives me and I pray that he watches over you. Well honey, its another Thanksgiving that I will have some "Yankee" dressing and think of you each time I take a bite. Take care honey and remember, I love and miss you very much. Until that time honey, keep smiling.

Happy Birthday Mom!! I don't have a margarita today for this celebration but I do have a corona!! How are things with you? Mandi and I have been super busy between work and house hunting, it seems as though we barely have anytime for anything. This house hunting stuff is for the birds. Mandi and I are trying to look for a house around Mount Pleasant because a lot of the neighborhoods seem pretty safe. After we got broken into in Virginia, we would like to stay in an area were we feel safe but it seems like houses in those areas, are just a little too expensive. We are ready to make that commitment so we can start a family! Don't know which direction to take yet but I'm sure we will figure it out and I know you will be there with us! We all miss you and we love you very much! Happy birthday again Mom, love and miss you so much!

Good morning honey. Well today is your birthday. Happy Birthday my love, I miss you so much. Another year has past and I miss you more each day. I wish you were here with me. Honey, I'm so lonely without you. I wish you were here so I could hold you and have you tell me that everything is going to be fine. I'm having a CT of my lungs on Tuesday and I'm really worried about what the results will be. I feel I'm getting worse as time goes by. The only bright spot about it is that I have your love to keep me going and I have your memory embedded in my heart. You will always be with me no matter where I am. I love you Sarah and I always will. Happy Birthday again honey and have a wonderful day. Love you sweetheart. ;)

Good morning again my love. Yes, the date today is the date but yesterday was the day. I miss you more today than I did yesterday. I will always love you Sarah and no one will ever take your place. No one could or can make me feel like you did. You were, and still, are my life. I cherish every minute we ever spent together and I think of all the silly stuff we use to do. I love you Sarah and will always think of you and our life together. Until that day my love.

Hey Mom!! Mandi and I are planning on going out for you tonight. It has been 6 years now and I miss you more than ever. So much has happened and although, I know that you have been with me spiritually, I wish you were here so we could talk about it together. Mandi and I are starting to look at houses!! YAY!! Life is so short and we are trying to enjoy it every chance we get. We all miss and love you very much. Talk to you soon, love Michael ♡
