HAppy Mother’s Day! I miss you so haven’t talked to Betty since November! She is having a mental health crisis and decided not not talk to me or my family ever again according to her over the internet when she was staying at my home. Hoping she will contact us before it’s too late cause I have a major change coming up in my life and I hope she will reach out to us before it’s too late!

Dear Mom, I miss you a lot during this day four years ago. You passed away 4 years ago today, and although you are not here you are always remembered. I will always remember the good times we shared and how you used to cook Turkey and Thanksgiving dinners and Christmas dinners for us during the early years. I miss your presence. I finally completed my goal and passed the Bar this year. I wish you could have been there to attend my Oath for the Attorney. I am a lawyer now. Betty B. Shannon, Esq. I passed with score of 285, and I can practice in a lot of states with a score of 260. Love you and miss you

Mom, I went to the Philippines this year, and I even took a V-hire to the hospital to lay some flowers in your hospital room. I know it was a year ago when you passed away, but I still remember your face and hear your voice. Just wanted you to know I did stop by even though it was a year later. The nurse and hospital staff allowed me a few moments in your room. I noticed the window in your room. And felt your presence. I bought flowers and set them in your room for you. Miss you lots. May GOD Bless you and keep you safe. Until we meet again. Love, Betty

Today is your anniversary of your passing. I am in the Philippines staying with Maribel's family. Hard to believe it's been a year already. I wish I could have been by your side when you passed. I stop by Kbs and asked the gardener to take the sign down I'm going to bring it back with me along with the curtains you made at minglanilla when I return to the US. Mom you are free of the pain and suffering I watch you over the years right up until you hear passing. I love and miss you dearly your son ken

Mom, today is your anniversary. I miss you everyday and not just on today. I'm so sad that we couldn't see each other one last time before you left to be with GOD in heaven. I miss your voice, laughter, and your presence. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of you in remembrance. Wherever you are I hope you are happy and safe, and loved. For those of us left behind, we miss you and wish you were here to spend another Christmas 2016, and New Year 2017. Until we meet again, I love you, your daughter, Betty
