I just miss you so much Mom. Every minute of everyday you are in my thoughts and heart. It hurts as much toady as it did the day we lost you. The sweetest most giving beautiful woman ever. I was very blessed to have been your daughter, your baby as you called me. I love you Mom.
To my Grandma, even though for over 2/3 of my life you lived 1100 miles away I always felt a closeness with you. It was many years that went by after you moved that I finally got to see you, and it was like you had never moved away. I was always updated with things going on with you from my dad. He always was sure to have two parts of a conversation in, how the weather sucked in Chicago, and how Grandma was doing. I was so happy to see you when we could when we would travel to Florida, or when Dad brought you here one summer. We made sure to send you calendar every year with the yearly events for each month so you could feel like you were a part of our life up here in Illinois. I will cherish the little time we spent with you due to the distance and I am glad my daughters will have great memories of your wittiness. It must have been fate when we named Grace, Grace Evelyn Mitchell, we gave her your name as her middle to honor you, but when my dad told me your middle name was Grace my heart was filled. Every time I hear or say my Graces name I think of that moment time. You will be missed by all, love your Grandson, Gary.
I come here everyday to see your beautiful face and tell you how much I love and miss you. I sit in the black chair in your living room and talk to the place on the couch where you would sit. I open your closet doors to look at some of your favorite tops including the couple you didn't even get to wear and your little black boots. I can smell your scent as soon as I open the closet door. I'm glad I have a place to go to talk to and remember you. I can not begin to express how much I love and miss you.
You were the best mom. My best friend and angel on earth.
Love you always, Pam
So glad I saw her smile a couple of weeks ago.
~My two angels~
Addie said it best when I told her you went to heaven. "Your mom has her mom back."
Going to miss seeing your face but I know you are with loved ones right now. I'll cherish the memories I have and all your letters that I have kept over the years.
