Very sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the Bible at Acts 24:15 And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous.

Even though you havent been gone long. I miss you so much in short time. I dont know if you ever realize how much you were really loved by your family and friends. I would love it when you would call me out of the blue. just to say that you love me .and you would say I know your busy but I just wanted to tell you that. I hear your voice now . Im sorry that I was busy a lot and should have gave you more of my time . I know you worried about me doing to much. I would normally call you now because Im going through a tuff time right now. but I cant . I thank god for blessing me with you I will keep you close to my heart. and all the memories in my mind . Im not sure why but when I think of you I hear your voice as if youre here. I will see later. I know you will be waiting for me when I come. I promise I will slow down.AND I PROMISE YOU Will NEVER BE FORGOTTEN SO SEE YOU SOON LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!!!!!
