Dear Mom, I still can't believe you are gone. I miss you so much! The past couple of years were filled with many happy, and sad times due to your dementia. It broke all of our hearts knowing this awful disease was taking over your body and mind, and you knew something was going on, and would say, I don't mean to be this way, and we knew you didn't mean it either. You are loved so much by your family and friends. You may be gone from us physically, but will always be in our hearts and memories. Give Grandma and Grandpa a big hug from me and one day we will all be reunited, and what a Glorious Day That Will Be! I Love You
Dear Mr. Lynn. You know I had so much love for this dear woman. She always will have a special place in my heart. Thinking of you during your time of grief and sending many hugs and many prayers your way.
