I love you and I miss you ! Even thou I feel your presence with me constantly , I still miss your physical presence.I wish that you where here so that I could touch and see you again with my natural eyes.
You live now within me within my own heart .I know you are with others of our family also because I feel you around them.
I still smell your prefume and certain sights and sounds imediately bring you to mind.I will never forget you and I believe that love is forever.You have been such a role model to me and you still are.
When I ask myself what would granny have done in this stituation are what would she tell me to do .I hear your words just like you where still here. My heart already knows what your reply would be.
You have been such a strong person and your strenght has strenghtened me.
I am sorry that I wasn't able to be there before it happened but I know that you know the prays that I had sent out to you.And that you heard me in spirit say goodbye.
There just isn't enough words to do you justice here, I try to think of them but they just don't come.
I know you deserve so much more than this but I hope and believe that you can see what my heart is trying to say even thou I can't find the right words to express it.
We miss you alot and I try and hold on to what memories I have.Even thou some of then seem to be fading.I still think the important parts will always remain with me .But I sure hate how time and age make it harder to remember specfic things.Like every line of your face.
I don't have too many physical things to remember you by.But I love the few that I have and cherish everyone.I just wish i had at least one picture , prehaps you can help me to get one.I really don't want to take any from other family members, I know they cherish them also.
Dad wasn't really able to talk about you without crying until I moved back home a few years ago.Now he happily talks about his special memories of you.I think they bring him joy to remember them now.
You have showed me how much family means and how much a woman can accomplish in the world .And i know your love for me was unconditional as my love for you is also.
To you Granny ...I will never truly say goodbye ...but smile and say," Hello Again ....I will see you again sometime!"
In your Loving Memory I pay this Tribute to you !
Your Grand Daughter Forever,
Debbie

Dear Grandma:

It doesn't seem possible that you have been away for two years now. At first I didn't know how I would go on without you. You were such a large part of my life. You are still such a part of our family - you're still the glue. Sometimes I look out through the window panes on the french doors of the porch, and for a fleeting moment see your little head walking by - just as you did every day to get the mail. There isn't a week that goes by without the thought running through my head "I've got to tell Grandma about that". The year that we all lived together is so special and I wouldn't trade that for anything. I know that your great grandsons wouldn't trade it either. Your example to all of us will live forever. I am so proud of you and your accomplishments educationally and professionally - you're one of a kind for your generation. Kevin and I went to a grief counseling group because it was so difficult for him to let you go. He was "your boy" and still is. Would you believe that there was a gentleman in the group that was a student of yours? He talked to Kevin about you and how you touched his life when he was a young man. He is just one of so many that you taught and counseled. Speaking with that man seemed to be comforting for Kevin and we didn't have to return for any further sessions.

I hope that you could feel me there when you passed and that you were aware of the presence of the boys in the room just after. I could still feel you in the room for some time. I know that there were others in the room waiting to welcome you to the spirit world. Telling you that it was okay to go to them is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.

Your friend and child forever,

Marcy

I have been watching your site now for a few days and am anxious about the psychic classes. Was reading your thread to honor the loved ones and wanted to add my own, but not sure how.

I just want to say that I miss my Aunt Phyllis very much, when she was among the living I never truly appreciated what I had, and now she is on the other side. I can feel her presence at times but I cannot hear her words

To my baby boy, you've been gone for 8 years now and it still seems like yesterday in my heart. Mommy misses you so much and not a day passes that I dont think about you. Just two days ago you were 8 years old. In my mind I tried to picture what you would look like but all I could see was my little baby boy. I just want you to know that I love you very much today as the day you had to leave and God chose you to be another rose in his kingdom, you may not be here but your always in mommys heart and I love you very much. It wasnt fair that you had to leave and I know that someday will be together again. I love you Forever your Mommy.

We will never forget you or your families !
