We miss you Granny. It's been 10 years. We still keep your name & memories alive. Even though you are gone we all know you are watching over us and even here in spirit. I know you are watching allah, me, brianna, & devin go through life and still learn things and live our lives. I wish I could remember even one memorie of you but I can't. I am in the 9th grade now. I know you will be there watching me as I walk across that stage and graduate. And watch me grow into the beautiful women I am. I know there is a purpose for everything. I love you and miss you. <3
Love,

Your Hugs
Dear Mom,
It's been over a year and I still get caught up in emotions. I know I always will mourn over you. I try to remind myself that you are in a better place and without the struggle and often suffering in this life. I am confident in that and also someday we will all be reunited. I just miss your hugs and feeling your plush cheeks against mine or tenderly pillowing my lips when I kissed your sweet face.
The first year was difficult. I think I practically lost that whole period of my life. I didn't know how to move forward. There are still times I get lost and I wish you were here. There are times I can't stop thinking about you and perhaps you are at those moments in my presense as Tina has even said. I know you will always be with us Mama. I also know that you are aware how much you will always mean to so many. I love you so much beautiful woman, you beautiful soul.
Until I can hug you and kiss your angelic face again, there will be a void in my heart. Thank you so much Mom for life, for strength, for everything. I know that with you, I will NEVER really walk alone. You truly are my guiding angel.
Your son,
---Sean

When I walked into the room
an acute surge of powerful peace erased all doubts of doom
A spiritual feeling I can't explain
like walking afloat snow covered plains
where as a young girl she frolicked and played
or cushion clouds above sleet and rains
A life of many sorrows, heartbreaks and pains
of admirable devotion to friends and to kin
to her angels guiding her home faithfully to Him
"I love you son", her eyes they glazed
Fall on your knees, offer her due praise
a presense beholds taking her by hand
feed her soul full of sunny days
share your heart
show all the ways
count all the times
Embed her memories
Call her space
Carry her there to that Other Place
Going beyond to that Father of man
I'll hold your hand until the end
...and witness the promise
your soul reborn again.
I love you Mama.
Named for the hospital room at Memorial Hospital of South Bend, In where I not only witnessed my dear Mother die, but I also experienced her rebirth in God's promise of eternal life. I trully did feel the Holy presense and witnessed that my Mother was at peace with death. I believe she saw her offerings, as Iher eyes expressed tremendous peace and told me everything was alright. I know my Mama's heart, mind and soul. Thank you Mama for erasing any doubts. I was reborn again through you and with you. Until that day when we are together again in that home prepared for us, I will miss you and keep you forever in my heart. I love you.
