Today would have been your 39th birthday Son. yet in my mind, I still see your sweet face of a very youthful 21. Today I’m remembering the last time I felt you hug me… as we said goodbye before you went thru the gate at the airport when you deployed . I told you to keep yourself safe, and return to us. We said our ‘I love yous’ then you gave me one more squeeze and said ‘bye mom’. I’ll feel that last embrace forever ♥️

Missing you so much Son. You would have turned 38 yesterday, and I spent all night for the past two nights, with your visits in my dreams. On nights like that, I want to sleep and sleep … I pray you’ll be visiting Dad all this week, next Sunday will be the hardest day to get through… 17 years since God took you home, and it still hurts like it was yesterday.
I pray you can feel my love.

Love, Mom

You would have turned 36 today son, and I’ve been thinking how it would have gone, had you returned to us. The man you would have become, and the joy your father and I would have felt in witnessing your fulfillment in your life. Bittersweet ‘what if’s’ ...
Love you and miss you,
Mom

So very sorry.

Missing you more than ever son
