I Thought of You With Love TodayThought of you with love today, but that is nothing new.I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name.All I have are memories and a picture in a frame.
Your memory is a keepsake, with which I’ll never part.God has you in his keeping, I have you in my heart.
- Your Loving Husband Rickey
Dearest Mama,All I’ve ever called you was Mama, but you have always been SO MUCH MORE than just Mama to me. You were my Best Friend, my Protector, my Corrector, my Cheerleader, my Confidante, and my She-ro. Mama,
mere words can never express just how much you meant to me.
Thank you for being an amazing Mother to me, and such a loving, caring, and giving grandmother to my children. Thank you for the life lessons that you taught me, and for being such an awesome example of
what it means to be a Virtuous Woman.
I am so grateful to God for the 34 years that He allowed you to stay with me; but honestly, I am truly heart-broken to see you go. It feels as though a piece of me left here with you. Mama, I am going to really miss our long late-night talks and will probably even pick up the phone a few times to call you; but, I know that one day, I will see you again, so I will keep going. I can only pray that I can be half as good of a mother to my children as you have been to me. Rest well, my Beloved! You will
ALWAYS be in my heart, and I will Love You ALWAYS!
