"Mom", words can not express the sadness in my heart; You were everything a girl could ask for in a Mother in law. Your family was so important to you and your love for everyone shined through. You have showed us such bravery and fight these last few years and I still say you are one "tough cookie"!! For that alone I admire you so much. Now is time for you to rest..and we will miss you dearly. Until we see each other again...Love you!

Hi Grandma, I know I didn't come by to see you as much as I should have but the times I did stop by were so precious to me. The last time we talked you held my hand and urged me to take control of my health so I dont end up like you. I took that to heart and I've been trying very hard. I will miss you very much Grandma. One day you will be greeting us all at the gates of heaven and everyone will be happy.
