It is with the heaviest heart I have ever had that I write this for you. Everything in my world has lost a little color now your gone. I will have you with me every second of every day giving me strength when I am unsure or discouraged about myself, you were and will always be my number one fan, no one in my life has made me feel better about myself than you. Always giving me nothing but your whole heart, a comforting smile, and open arms. Always glowing, always kind. I can’t say bye , so for now I’ll just have to say I’ll see you later. I love you with all my heart granny
I love you Mom and miss you terribly and it’s only been two days since you departed. I feel you with me now. We will meet again someday.

I will miss you dear friend, please save a place up there next to you for me. Best friends stick together you know. I love you dear friend.
