In Memory of Mom
"Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted." St. Matt.V:4
O Gentlest heart of Jesus, ever present in the Blessed Sacrament, ever consumed with burning love for the poor captive souls in Purgatory, have mercy on the soul of Thy departed servant.
Be not severe in Thy judgment but let some drops of Thy Precious Blood fall upon the devouring flames, and do Thou, O merciful Savior, send Thy angels to conduct Thy departed servant to a place of refreshment, light and peace, Amen.
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.

Cancer Took You From Us
Mom it happened all so fast. One day you were here and a couple months later you were gone. The cancer took you so fast. It has been a year and a half since you have left us to go home. We miss you and think of you every day. We love you!!
Thinking of you mom
After Your Funeral
Mom, I hope you liked your wake and funeral. The songs and readings were beautiful that you picked out. We were able to find the White Coffin that you wanted. We had to special order it and when I saw the brass shell on it I knew it was for you. You always loved the beach. The Footprints In The Sand plague was just perfect for the coffin too.. and the flip side with the lighthouse and the words I'm Coming Home made it even more beautiful. The funeral director must have thought I was crazy asking him to change it over the day of the funeral to going home with the lighthouse on it but it just seemed to be so appropriate. They were very nice there I am happy we used them.
Rest in Peace Mom
Life Without You
Life without you just isn't the same mom. Each day that goes by the pain becomes a little bit less, but you are still very missed.
Christmas In Heaven
Its been the second Christmas with out you mom. Time is flying by so fast yet it feels as if it was yesterday that you were here with us. The girls and I reminisce of how you would come by Christmas Eve just so that you could give them their gifts and spend some time alone with them. You never wanted to wait till Christmas day. Merry Christmas Mom, I know that you are with us in Spirit.
Merry Christmas Mom and Dad
The Nativity
You always used to love the Nativity. I remember as a kid the huge Nativity we would put on the front lawn. Its what Christmas was all about. I also remember putting the nativity under the tree and hiding baby Jesus till Christmas. On Christmas morning we would find him and place him in the stable along Mary and Joseph. I have continued that tradition with my own family and as we display our Nativity I think of all our traditions and the fond memories of you at Christmas time.

Saint Patrick
Saint Patricks Day
Well this Saturday is Saint Patricks day and I will be making your cornbeef, cabbage and potatoes. We brought down the Irish Step dancing doll you gave the girls to display with our decorations. I also bought the girls fake nails with shamrocks on them. You would have got a kick out of them.
Happy Mothers Day 2012
Hi Mom, Well mothers day came and went. Once again was thinking about you. We went to the cemetery and it was so crowded that you couldn't even drive it was like a parking lot. One guy got out of his car and started yelling at all the cars happy mothers day. It was pretty funny. We planted flowers on your grave and also on the rest of the family around you. I am hoping they will all fill in and look nice all together.

Thank you Mom for the gift you left at the Sweet 16. Your Granddaughter found the piece of confetti with Grandma on it in her sweet 16 confetti. We knew that was from you and it was nice to know that you are with us. She picked such a nice song for you for her memory candle . I hope you liked it. Love you MOM. Glad you were with us on her special day.
