Mom, I am wishing you were with me for so many reasons. I have wonderful news Keith is getting married to a wonderful girl. You would be so happy to meet her she makes him happy and I am thrilled for him. Kim is not as happy right now so please send her your love she needs it to make some decisions that will be hard for her. I try to think of what you would say if you were here. She feels very alone right now so please watch over her.Thanks and I will always love and miss you.  Donna

Hi Nan, Its so funny how every now and again I get this feeling that you are with me, and I am sure that you are. You should see Jonathan he is getting so big. Who would have thought God's greatest gift is wraped in this little tiny body that can hardly speak but looks at me with those big eyes and I finally realize my place in this world. I finally understand what unconditional love truly is, in its purity.  I love you Nan and we all miss you so much and I know some of us (well all, just some more than others) could really use your love right now. You are in my thoughts always, and Thank You. Thank You for showing my mom how to be an amazing mom and woman, I can only hope to be half as good as you two. I love You!!!! Ashley

Mom, Its hard to believe its been a year since God called you to his side.We have all missed you so much,but just as you taught us we are all carrying on the best we know how. I love and miss you very much. Thanks for sending me the rainbows it sure helps on a gloomy day. Love Donna

Hi Nan,For obvious reasons I thought about you a lot today and I just felt like I wanted to talk to you. I miss you so much. Jonathan is getting so big he is walking around and starting to talk a little bit. I tell him all about you and I sing him the bushel and a peck song that you use to sing to us when we were little. All the girls will be together this weekend for Court's bridal shower I am really looking forward to seeing everyone but your presence will be missed as always. I love you and you are always in my thoughts and my heart.LoveAshley

Hi Mom, Its a few days before Mothers Day and tommorow I leave for Tx to See Keith and KIm will be there. Its been a long time since I had my own children with me on Mothers Day. I am so pleased about that I love and miss them always . But of course with my happiness comes the sorrow that you will not be with us. Its hard to know you are not going to be there but I will honor you always in my heart Love Doona

Happy Birthday Mom, I will honor you today as I do everyday Love Donna

Hi Mom, Just a note to tell you I love and miss you very much. Christmas was nice but My heart was aching without you and dad and sandy.Things are very different now but one thing never changes and thats how much I love you. Thank you for the rainbows they were beautiful. Love Donna

Hi Mom, Well its the week before Christmas and today I am missing you so much. dad sent me a Christmas card and it broke my heart not to see your name on it. He struggles every day without you as we all do. I love you and miss you Donna

Hi Mom, Its hard to believe you are not going to be with us on thanksgiving. I will be going home for the holiday I think it will be good for us all for me to come. Sandy is being so good with dad as you know he is not always easy. I think of you always in all that I do I miss you with all my heart. You are with me always Love Donna

Hi Mom, I have been thinking a lot of you and I miss you so much. Life is hard without you. Dad has moved into Sandys and she is so wonderful to take care of him. Our lives will never be the same without you. I feel alone down here sometimes but I think of you and have to remember that I will be strong just like you were. The pool is almost ready and I will put a rubber duck in it and if someday I see the duck moving I will know it is you trying to get it. Send the rainbows  Mom we need them I love and Miss you Donna

Hey Gram, I was just looking at some favors for the wedding and I started to think about you.  I really wish you could be there but I know even though you wont be there in body you will be there in spirit.  I am going to have a special memory candle for you that day that James and I will light for you.  I miss you so much, but I know you are in heaven watching over all of us.   I love you.   xoxoxo

Hi Mom,  It's Thursday afternoon and I can't stop thinking about you. So many things are happening since you left us, the biggest one of all is that dad is coming to live with Roy and I.  It has been really  hard watching dad cry all the time since you left. I don't know what to say to him anymore, he is so lonely and he misses you so much. I hope mom that by dad coming with us that we can bring a little life back into his heart, I know that we will never make him as happy as you did but at least I can let him know how much we love him. Mom please help me so that I can make this change for all of us go smoothly, I will need you to watch over me and make sure that I stay strong. I miss yo mom and I love you with all of my heart.  Love Sandy

You were the best grandmother a girl could ever ask for.  I miss you so much and I will never forget all of the good things you have done for me and our whole family.  I will carry you in my heart forever.  I love you.
