Mom,
I will miss our daily conversations and celebrations of family love. I have been blessed to have you as my Mother and a Grandmother to my children. You taught me that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I will remain strong and faithful that we will be together again when Jesus calls me home. God picks the flowers before he picks the weeds, with you he has the most beautiful of the flowers and a faithful servant. I will miss you every second of the day until we are together again. I thank God that he chose you as my Mother. Rejoice and be happy with the Lord.l I know you will be with us in heart and soul and will watch over us with the most precious gift of your love and faith.I am proud to be your Daughter.
Until we meet again all my love,
Dee
