My Beautiful Mother, I miss you so Much!! I have comfort in knowing that you know how much I love you. I may not have been the best but I tried so hard to take care of you and would do it all over again. I will miss our conversations, and wonderful times that we shared. They will stay in my heart forever. You are a wonderful Mother and friend. You tried so hard to teach me right from wrong and to be an honest, caring and loving person. I will do my best to never let you and Dad down. I have learned so much from that last several years and will hold it in my heart forever. I have comfort in knowing that you are with God and Dad. Your marriage was a fairy tail that most can only dream about. I can only picture your reunion and know that you are holding hands once again and so very happy. You touched so many lives with your kindness, Everyone of my friends loved you so much. They all called you Mom and I know you were so proud of that. I LOVE you and Dad dearly and know one day we will all be together again. LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK my dear Mom. Forever in my heart. Barb
