Happy 88th birthday Mom..sure wish you were here but we would not be going to Foxwoods for you birthday with the virus going around.I dont know how you would feel wearing a mask but I think you would be quite cranky with that. Anyway, I'm looking more and more like you everyday...especially my hair! Would love to call you up to chat...I miss you alot and hope you are happy and well....all my love, Marie

May Jesus bless you on his birthday...with love, Bob and Marie

Cannot believe it's been two years since we spoke, that I held your hand, that we had dinner together, that we watched TV together and worked on a puzzle, and the list goes on.....As I sit by your grave today I am feeling blessed that I had such a wonderful mom and that I was able to carry out your wishes to the end. You are forever in my heart... Love, Karen

The grass withers and the flower fades , but the word of our God lasts forever. May you be with Jesus on this your second anniversary...happy to be home ! Love you Mom...Marie and Bob 12-2-2017

I thought of you today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence...I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake from which I'll never part. God has you in his arms....and I have you in my heart. Love you Mom....Marie

Mom was always happy when she was near the ocean!

Happy Birthday Mom.

Your Mother is always with you.... She's the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street She's the smell of bleach in your freshly laundered socks She's the cool hand on your brow when you're not well Your Mother lives inside your laughter...she's crystallized in every teardrop She's the place you came from, your first home...she's the map you follow with every step you take She's your first love and your first heartbreak...and nothing on earth can separate you Not time, not space, not even death will ever separate you from your Mother You carry her inside you...
