Today does not mark the end of a life. It marks the beginning of eternal life for my mother. I choose to remember her and the memories we have in life rather than the final breath she took on this day 3 years ago. I still listen to the last voicemail that says " I love you baby" a heart does not forget.

Well today is the day you took that last breath 3 yrs ago. I miss you as much today as that day and the sadness fills my heart. I would not give anything to bring you back tho as I know you are in such a wonderful place with nothing but happiness and joy. I know you are not sick and you are with family you missed. I miss you momma and I love you !

Hello my sweet friend! I know you all are celebrating today with my Mother as it is her day today. 83 years would have her earthly birthday and I know you will tell her how much I loved her. You know more than most how much she meant to me. I miss you both so much. But I know that you know this. Soar with the eagles today!

Wow, it has been two years already! It seems like yesterday, then again it seems like a lifetime since I saw you and talked to you. I so miss you and the great times we shared. I miss your laugh and our fun times. I visited with CR not long ago and he ask about you, he said that you were a great friend to both of us. He knew that "we" were each others' rock for sure! I wish you could see Brent, he is such a great little man, you would be so proud of him. I keep up with him on Facebook, watching from afar. I also watch LaDell, Jeremy, Crystal and all of your grandchildren and great-grandchildren from afar as well. They are all doing great too. Everyone appears to be very happy and the kids are all growing up quickly. Justin really reminds me of you so much, it must be that red hair, lol You know I am partial to that anyway. My dear friend, my sister I so miss you and our times together. Continue to soar and watch over us all. Give my Mother and my sister hugs for me! Love you and will see you when I get there too! God Bless.....

My dear, dear friend I miss you every single day and there are no words to describe how I miss the friendship we had. I know that you are soaring with the eagles and watching over all of us and breathing so easy now with no pain or confusion. I only wish I could have understood then what I do now. You know I loved you like my own sister and I cannot wait until I see you again in heaven. Give my Mother a big hug please. I love you dearly!
