  Hi Mom, HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Its been a couple of days since I talked to you, and Im sorry.Kenny,Vince & myself have been spending alot of time together. We planted 3 Butterfly bushes in my yard yesterday in memory of you. Kenny & Vince are the white ones & Im the blue one in the middle, but you probably already knew that because you are watching over us. Are you doing o.k.? I know you're free of pain now, but it's still so hard dealing with this. I think of you every minute my eyes are open, & even dream of you at nights. I wish things were so different & you were here with me once again, but I cant undo what God has already done, so I need to accept this, right? Well, I cant!!!!! I love you so very much.

  Hi Mom,its me once again. Im still having a bad time dealing with this. Its so hard getting through the days,that sometimes I think Im going to crack. I look at your pictures everyday and talk to you and God every night before I go to sleep. I know Im being selfish, but I keep asking him why did HE take you away from me so soon? I wasnt ready to deal with this, not yet. We still had so many years to look forward to together. Now Im all alone. I know HE wanted you also but HE could of waited just a bit longer. Am I being selfish??? I talk to Kenny & Vince everyday & they seem to be all right. They try to keep busy.Maybe thats what I need, instead of taking the summer off, I need to get back to work.Being in this house, every crack & crevice reminds me of you.With being off work, I was coming to get you & spend more time with you, heck, we even talked about you coming back to live here at home. That would of be so great Mom, now all my dreams are shattered.Tomorrow is Mothers Day and that is going to be so hard. Aunt Hattie & Aunt Jeanette wants me to come up to Aunt Joyces for dinner but I dont think I can do that so soon. Kenny, Vince & me will be visiting tomorrow bringing you flowers. I keep trying to tell myself "To be absent of the body is to be in the presence of the Lord." I MISS YOU so very much and LOVE YOU even more.

  Hi Mom, It's me again. Im having a pretty rough day so far. Everyone says it will get easier,but I dont think they know what they are talking about.Kenny,Vince and myself spent some time together yesterday thinking of you,then Vince had to go mow the neighbors yard so Kenny,Susan and me came out to visit. You were sleeping so peacefully we didnt want to disturb you so I talked to you for a bit. (I hope you were listening)I dont think I have ever felt pain like this before. I hurt so bad, I need you to assure me that the pain will ease up. I sent a basket to the nurses and staff at Gables for taking such good care of you. You really liked out there.I just wish I could of been there with you in the end, or better yet you being here at home surrounded by you family.You didnt have to do this alone. Well, I think I bent your ear enough for another day, so I will go for now, but you are always with me. I love you.Talk to you soon.

  Hi Mom, I felt like I needed to talk to you to let you know how things went. The funeral was beautiful as were the flowers. We played your Alan Jackson music softly in the background. Janets boys came in as did Timmy. Sonny couldnt make it, but his love was with you.I love you so very much, I just wish there was more I could of done. You were my rock and I dont know how I can go through every day not being able to see your smiling face and to talk to you. You left me to soon, I wasnt ready for it.You tell grandma, Aunt Janet and Dad we say hi and we love them. I promise to watch over Kenny and Vince and Dustin will be just fine.The dogs (Abbey & Apollo) really miss you, especially Apollo.Every time I look at Apollo I see you.I will see you again in Heaven. I love you so very much. Talk to you soon.

  MEL,MEL Right away you will know who this is from. I came home from work read the paper and started to cry. I am so sorry for your loss. I know how much your mother meant to you. There are no words anyone can say and nothing anyone can do at these times to ease the pain you have. I looked outside at the angel you gave me for the loss of my mother and I prayed to the angel to help you with your loss. Then I looked at the beautiful blanket you sent for me for Pappy and I hope you know how much these all mean to me. Right now I am having a hard time because I have tears again. I just hope you know how much I care about you and know I am thinking of you and your family. May God bless and help all of you. Love and support Martha
