“Have hope in tomorrow, have faith in the everlasting, and take comfort in the love of friends and family.” -(Author Unknown) I'm sorry for your loss, William, but I think we never lose the people we love, they lives in our heart and in the Heaven, we will meet them again. A hug.
Mary, I didn't know you. But you raised a son whoes gifts to me have been messages of kindness, laughter and honesty. You did a great job there. I hope you are at peace.
Mom,Just thought I'd say I love you, just thought I'd say goodbye,We all will miss you dearly, and we promise not to cry.We will never forget your voice or our talks on the phone,And how happy you were to see us, when we came home.You worried so much about us, we worried about you too,I know this is the hardest thing, we've ever had to do.I know you will be watching us, and be our guiding light,Give us strength and fortitude to make it through the night.You were my "go to" person, in times of trouble and need,There will never be another like you, whose words that I will heed.You're now our guardian angel mom, sitting on our shoulders,Whispering words of wisdom, we'll use as we get older.I'll close for now mom, it's time to go, we'll meet again someday,We'll pick up again where we left off, before God took you away.Love, Willie
If I could have only said what you needed to hear while you where alive, I wouldn't live this nightmare knowing you died with out it.
You were like a sister to me rather then a cousin. I will miss you dearly...I LOVE YOU MARY.
