Mom,
It has been 1 year since you went to the Pearly Gates. I miss you everyday. Your were not only my Mom, but also one of my best friends. You were there for me in the best of times to celebrate. You were there for me in the worst times to hold my hand.
One of the things I will always remember is how beautiful you looked whenever you were going out. You had on your earrings and a necklace or a pin. Whatever outfit you wore would be ironed to perfection. If I was going to a Christmas Party or something special you would always want to make sure I had something special to wear and always asked "Do you have earrings & a necklace to go with that?"
This picture will always remind me that you were one of the strongest people I know. When you broke and shattered your arm you were in so much pain it was terrible. This is one of the few times you ever asked for help. Usually we had to force help on you. When the doctor took off your cast he had to put this contraption on so the arm was not moved too much until it healed. You were happy to have the cast off but sad that you would not be able to use your arm much.
You always had a smile and a hug for me. You were beautiful inside & out.
Love You Lots & Lots,
Wendy
Mom's Apple Pie was and will always be the best pie.
A day doesn't go by that some happy memory makes me smile.
Roses and every flower Mom grew in her garden is now in her daughters gardens.
Y we may ask ourselves did she leave us. We are blessed with the time we had.
Mom
We all Loved Salisbury Beach since you and Dad brought us as kids.
I really like this picture because it reminds me of the wonderful days we had at the beach.
I miss you so much.
Love,
Wendy
Mom,
I was at your house tonight trying to do what I could to make Dad feel better somehow.We had lobster, wings,oven bake potatoes, chips dip but no clam fritters.That was my favorite on New Years eve.As I washed the pans and dishes that wouldn't fit in the dishwasher I kept thinking of you.I kept thinking about you being at that sink every time a holiday was going on and how easy you made everything seem.You loved having your family there waiting on anyone who might need something and you could tell who might need some extra attention,one of us or maybe one of your gandchildren.I miss hearing your voice asking if you can get something for anybody.I understand how you loved that house but you know what Mom,your house is just a house without you there.Sure it holds alot of memories ,for over forty years it has been a safe haven for us.Of course Dad is still there too.But without you there with him he doesn't care to be there anymore either.As this year ends and another begins I hope for the memories of you to stay with me always.The love I have for you is forever.You were such a great Mom.
