Thinking of u grama..

Missing you......

Well it is vacation time!! I know this was one of your favorite times of the year. And I have no doubt that you will "show up" in the thoughts, hearts, and spirits of everyone this weekend! We wouldn't have it any other way...

It didn't feel right yesterday to not have a card for you or to be able to call you and come by to wish you a Happy Mother's Day. Sometimes I want to call the house just to ask if you needed anything because I was going to the store. I want you to make some flybread (do you know ma called it flour bread the other day? smh). I miss you so much. My heart hurts. We are all hurting. But I know that you are okay...you are with our heavenly father. Love you gramma.

Happy Mothers Day In Heaven

Dear mom in heaven
I just want you to know
How much I miss you everyday
And how much I love you so

I cannot send you a card
But I can send my love
Upon the wings of angels
To heaven up above

I wish you happy mothers day
For you were the best
To have you for my mother
I knew I had been blessed

Rest in peace my angel
One day we will be together
The next time that I see you
I know it will be forever

14 months closer to seeing you again.........missing you like crazy

I heard you today...

Thinking of you on today as I go through your mail looking levon Medicaid card. I told some of them on Sunday I haven't had time to mourn like the rest of them for trying to keep them straight, but I have my moments especially when I'm in my kitchen looking at the house wondering what are you doing? Yes, I really miss you, don't have anyone to keep me straight now, but I just remember the things you told me and it gets me through. Love ya!!!

Sometimes i sit and think about how my life would be different if you where here. I sit and stare at the house and think of all the memories we shared in that house.Every since u left seems like my life is missing something and thats u. They say time will heal but that mark is gone be with us forever. Love ya gramps

Thanks Grams***

MISSING YOU TODAY AND EVERY DAY.!!!!!

I didn't write up here for your Birthday because my feelings were all over the place and still is. But now it's getting close to vacation time and we really need to get away but I don't know how I'm gonna get through not being able to go in your room early in the mornings and waking you and Hilda up with that cup of coffee and sitting on the side of your bed and talking about what we're going to do that day, or where we're going to go,or what y'all are going to wear, or just sitting and cutting up just to make you laugh. I know you will be there in spirit but I just miss you so much. To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord and if you can't be with us there's no other place I'd wish you to be other than resting in the arms of Jesus. So I'm gonna put my trust in him and pray our vacation will be as joyous as if you were there.MISSING AND LOVING YOU ALWAYS.

Why'd you have to leave so soon?
Why'd you have to go?
Why'd you have to leave me when I needed you the most?
Cause I don't really know how to tell ya
Without feeling much worse
I know you're in a better place
But it's always gonna hurt

Happy Birthday Shirl!!!

Happy Birthday in Heaven

Your birthday brings back memories of laughter and of tears
Of all the celebrations held throughout your precious years

As you're now watching over me,I hope that you will see
How much those memories we made will always mean to me

I'll always cherish times we had and smile just at the thought
I hope you know the magnitude of the joy your life here brought

On holidays and birthdays its so hard to be apart
Like every day that falls between, your memory fills my heart

You're with me know everywhere I go; you're apart of all I do
I'll celebrate your special day and the gift of knowing you

Love you Mama!!! Always!

Today, we celebrated your birthday. What an awesome time we had in church I know you was their. We sent you balloons and ate at your favorite restaurant. I hope you know that everything you taught us has stuck with us all, and I love you for raising us to love God first and then each other. While you are looking down on us you see the legacy you left behind. We will never forget you. You will always and forever be in our hearts. It hurt's so bad but I know God only gave you to us for a little time and we loved every minute of it. Some days I just stair out the window and wonder what you are doing. If only we could see you we would know that you would be very proud of the kids you raised. I can see that smile on your face now. I have my days good and bad, but I just think of you and say she would do it this way or say this. Forever missed. Love you MOM!!!

Happy Birthday grams... We had a ball today celebrating you and i know you had a ball in heaven today as well.I tried so hard not to break down today but the time has hit me and the tears are flowing. I just miss you so much. So many things I wish I could talk to u about for understanding. Ill just continue to pray my way through. I know you probably told the other angels look at my family doin just as I would want them to. They say time heals all wounds but this wound will forever sting as long as I breathe. Missing you always but I know if I wanna see you again I gotta get myself together. And I'm trying so hard. Love you grama gone way too soon continue to rest easy.....

On this day we gathered together as a family to celebrate your birthday. Words could never express how much I miss you, how much I miss seeing your smile, how much I miss being able to conversate with you, or even listen to the advice you always had to offer. Your the best GRANDMOTHER a GRANDCHILD could ever ask for and I thank god for the 17 years he placed you in my life, Happy Birthday Granny & I love you soooo much , may you continue to rest in peace till we meet again....

On my birthday, I celebrate you Mama...the one who gave me life...the one who raised me and took care of me. I would not be the person I am today if it had not been for your nurturing and guidance. I'm everything I am because YOU loved me!

Gramma,

I know that it was you watching over Tim on Tuesday morning. When I look at the pictures of that truck, there is no way that he should of walked out of that alive. I can't thank you enough for being his guardian angel and I can't thank God enough for sparing his life. We celebrated Easter yesterday and it just didn't feel right to not have you sitting there on the couch watching and laughing at all that was going on. My heart hurts daily from missing you. I know that you would just be so tickled at some of the things Jr is doing and saying now. I can still hear your laughter from the Emergency Room waiting room as you watched him do his "high kick run". I miss you grams. I love you.

13 months 2 long.........miss u much!!!

Thinking of u**

Amazing how I was just thinking of you and I was sitting on the chair in a zone and my phone automatically began playing the recording Burnette sent to us. Lol.. Confirmation that you're always around in spirit. Love u grams forever.

"I need you to hold my hand"...
Life is so difficult right now. Need your prayers..
Remaining as humble as I can be but I feel like folding some times.

Today at work I was thinking all I have been through in a years time and I began to write and this is what came to me:
      STRIVING TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT!!!
In my life is stress, headaches, and pain.
Often it's hard to see the sunshine, for the rain...
No matter what I do everything seems to go wrong.
But I keep pushing and try to stay strong....
The devil is busy he comes from every side.
There are days I just want to run and hide...
But I was taught to press my way through.
Although it seems hard that's what I have to do....
My heart gets heavy from fighting back tears with all my might.
But I know you want me to keep STRIVING TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT!!!!
 

Mom my life is beyond a mess and I am so ready to be happy but it doesn't seem like it was meant for me. I miss you and I will always love you.!!!!

On this date last year people gathered for your homegoing service, and to say their final goodbyes. Those of us that really know you, know that you wasn't one to say goodbye. So on that note, rest on, and I will see you later!

It's been a year and it still feel like yesterday. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!

Well it was a year ago today that I got the news that God had called you on home. I still remember going to the hospital February 23 just to see you and to pray all would be well, never then did I think I would be going out to the the cemetery to visit your grave a year later.
   Im glad that God constantly remined me daily that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Im glad that when I get to feeling discouraged I can always feel your sweet spirit to help me carry on, or even the unexpected visits by just coming to me in a dream.I know now that you are stress free and don't have a worry in the world. I know that sickness shall be no more. I know that all is well, and that your smiling down from heaven. This still hurts as if it was yesterday but I pray that God be a comforter to me in my family... Until we meet again granny iloveyou & imissyou R.I.P

Bitter sweet moment today. Sad that you left us on this day a year ago but happy that you are safe in his arms and sick free. No more pain no more sickness. Seems like it was just yesterday. Can't believe its been a year. Things aren't and never will be the same without you grams. I miss you..we all miss you. R.I.P. love you forever. Til we meet again love.

I love you grams you will be forever missed. --love jonathan

Can't seem to hold it together today grams. Flash backs won't stop coming. To hold your hand and watch you take your last breath is something I'll never forget. many Hearts are still troubled BC of your unexpected absence but to my FAMILY I pray that OUR hearts begin to mend and we remain close and become even closer. I goof around a lot but my relationship with God is growing daily. And I pray daily for wisdom and guidance through this life changing experience. Thank u for loving and caring for us. For teaching us the word that we may one day see you again. Love you forever

One year closer to seeing you again.......

Your wings were ready...but my heart was not. Praying for peace in the midst of my sorrow. Love you always...

Well, it was a year ago today that our lives began to change forever. We never expected that when we took you to the hospital that we would never be able to bring you home again. Everything happened so fast...and so unexpectedly. Life will never be the same...

Going through my messages on my phone last night and played my saved messages and who's voice do I hear, you mom. I am overwhelmed that now when I'm missing you, as I often do, now I can hear your voice. Thank you Lord for a comforter. Love you mom.!!!

So many questions in life...so many reasons to throw in the towel but when I feel like I'm losing this fight, consolation from heaven comes clearly to me and remind me that nothing else matters then seeing Jesus. And I hear your voice saying "be strong hold on God has something in store for you". Missing you daily grams.

Happy Valentine's Day to my FIRST valentine...you introduced me to the concept of the love. You taught me what true, unconditional love was all about. You showed me how to love God, others, and myself. I am eternally grateful and I will ALWAYS love you...

Happy Valentine's Day Mom. I was thinking about you and that wonderful smile you always had on a day like today. How you would light up with every gift you got. I hope all our love reaches your heart today and everyday. You will always be our Valentine!!!
"WE LOVE YOU MOM "

My life is a mess...wish you were here. Missing you every day. Love you gramma.

11 months 2 long............miss you much!!!

Man. I didn't even know that everyone was coming here and posting. I cried as I read everyone's post...Gramma I miss you like crazy. I can still hear your laughter when you saw Jr do his high kick run. I can still see your face in the Emergency Room laughing at Jr before they took you back. I miss that laugh. I miss calling you and asking you to make me some "fly bread". It is so unreal that you aren't here to celebrate the holidays and events with us. I hope you hear me when I go talk to you. Please continue to watch over me and lead me in the right direction. I love you. ---Moo

Thank you for introducing me to God; if you hadn't I would be in a mess right now and not know which way to turn. Striving each day to keep your legacy alive!!

Merry Christmas.....Santa!

Sitting here on your steps,cannot seem to start my day. You know I was the first one running over here on Christmas morning like a child but I only wanted to make sure you had what you needed. Oh how I wish you were here. Can't seem to control the tears. I miss You so, so, so much!!!

Merry Christmas to the sweetest woman I know. Sure did miss seeing your beautiful smile as everyone opened up their gifts but most of all I miss seeing the twinkle in your eye and your cheeks rising up as you got your big gift. Oh how I miss my grams! But I know you're having a great time in heaven and lookin down on us today. Love you always
