Home Back

My Father had to leave us recently to be with the Heavenly Father, Mom, His Parents, and all the loved ones who departed this earth previously. I can just imagine him now walking the streets of gold or he might be riding his moped saying hello to everyone he passes with that great smile of his. He probably has some dogs walking/running with him too for he loved our pet dogs. Guess he found all of our dogs, even Bill (his great grand dog, lol). He is probably talking a lot to his parents, he has missed them over the years. He loved to talk to people, geniunely interested in everyone so I can imagine he is enjoying himself there too. He loved life and life up there is even better. We miss him down here on earth as we miss Mom so terribly too. I know she is happy because of him being with her again. Love to all, judy

My mother is in her final hours and ever since she heard this song back in the 90's at a revival she requested this song to be sung at her funeral. I just stopped by to read the words for some comfort because I envy where she is going and I'm gonna miss her soooo much. I love you mama.

Well it is another year 2007 and I still think about mom it will soon be her birthday and I really still miss her one day I will meet her at heavens gate she was a great mom ever she was good to us kids.I wish she was here for my wedding and to meet Tony now we have a kitty I wish she was still here.Mom would be very proud of me met a good man and got married and live the the mountains this is like heaven up here in the mountains I wish she was here this very day but I know she was watching.

Well, yeaterday was 7 years since Mom went to be with Jesus. I know that she has a new bady and a she is enjoy Heaven,. Someday I will be with her. I decorate the house for Christmas already because that was her last wish. Her teddy bear has not played since the tree is done. I know that someday I will be there to. I miss Mom and Dave very much. Christmas will be lonely again without them but someday, I will be seeing Jesus just like they have already done. This Christmas will be special this year because it will be on Sunday, and we do not know but Jesus could come back on this day and take us all home to be with Him. What a Day that will be when we see Jesus. ARE YOU READY TO MEET HIM? If not, ask Jesus to forgive your sin before you are left behind. God bless all who reads this. Love you, Mom. Linda

Yes, we'll see you soon again in the Land of Life where there is Peace in His Presence and Joy evermore and we'll never have to part again!

It seems like yesterday when you had to leave us. I know you wanted to stay but it was time for you to go, to be with Jesus and your loved ones in heaven. You still live in our hearts, in our memories, and you will always be with us. I look forward to seeing you again when Jesus calls me home. I can imagine you are so happy walking the streets of gold. To think too you have a new body and you will never grow old again! I can just imagine you enjoying the music in heaven too. I think of you singing, yes - singing, along with the angels and your loved ones, the praises to the King! To be in Jesus'love, presence, and light all the time is beyond my earthly comprehension. I got a little foretaste of it as you were passing, when the presence of His Holy Spirit encompassed my being, giving me peace and comfort! The experience is very difficult to describe in words for it was not of this world! The best is yet to come! Although we miss you so much, we know you are in a better place. We will see you soon again in the Land of Life where there is peace in His presence and joy evemore.

I know it has been awhile since I wrote but Mom is still in my heart and if she was living today she would be so proud of me because I met a really good guy that I am going to marry I wish mom was here today for my wedding.She would really like Tony I really miss my mom very much I always would talk to her and she would really understand me.Mom if only you was here someday I will see you in heaven I still cry because my mom isn't here with us.I will never forget you Mom you will always be in my heart....

Happy Mother's Day

This time I am writing as if I am writing to my Mom. Happy Mother's Day Mom! I miss you so much. Are you having a great time up there? Have you seen Jesus? How about your Mom and Dad? I miss Mom Guessford and Papa so much. You would be so proud of us kids. Last Sunday we had Dad a surprise 80th birthday party. Judy wrote a program and us girls sang about 10 songs. I thought of the time that we had you a surprise party up at Dorothy's house on First Street. You were so surprise. I love and miss you so much. Have you talked to Dave and how about Stinky? Hope you are sharing Stinky. Must go. I love you. Hope to see you some day. Linda

Well another Christmas has passed without Mom or my husband, Dave. I watched a Christmas movie where a Mother returned to her family before Christmas to spend some time with them. I would love to have Mom and Dave come back just for a little while. Time to talk and hug. I know that they cannot come back but I have a Christmas teddy bear that has been playing alot this week without doing anything to make it play. I believe Mom is making it play for it was her bear before she left me. Well I know that their Christmas was a great one in Heaven and I know that some day I will be able to spend Christmas with them again. Miss them very much. Love, Linda

This time of year is so depressing I really miss Mom and Tina and Elmer I still put my tree up and everything for christmas in memory of our loved ones I wasn't going to put up a tree and all but I did it for Mom,Tina and Elmer I know they are looking down of all we have done for them.Linda is having an open house this year again and her place is so fixed up nice for our Mom I am sure Mom is looking down and she is smiling at all Linda has done..........I really miss Mom it would have been better if she was here with us.But someday we all will see her in heaven she will be waiting at the gate waiting for us with open arms..I love my Mom and she will always be in my heart forever and forever.I love you Mom ..........Joyce

Merry Christmas Day to all

Hello all

Hello all

Hello all

I miss Mom very much. I have been decorating for Christmas. Mom loved Christmas so much. I wish she could be here to see my house lit up. This year, I have decorated the shed also with blue rope and swag lights. In the front of the shed is a deer and tree lit. I have a new tree this year in the dining room and the big green one that she got me before she died in the family room. In the front yard, I have a manger scene and a large angel plus another tree and deer. This year will be the 7th year for my open house Get-together where I invite friends and family to see the decoration. Mom would love to be here to see the good time that we have. Last year we had 65 to come out. I look for more to come out this year. On Thanksgiving Day I went to my Goddaughter's house for lunch. She is almost three years old and her mother invites me to special occasion to eat with them. Well, I must close. Have a Merry Christmas if I don't get back on this site before Christmas. Love and miss my Mom, Linda

Today I decorated the outdoors. I have my shed decorated in blue rope and swag lights with a lighted deer in front. The front of the house has a manger scene, angel and projector lamp showing the wise men. There are lights all around the top of the house. Mom enjoyed Christmas so much. I decorate for her. Every room in the house is decorate and I invite guests to come and see the decorations. I wish Mom was here to enjoy the lights with me but she better where she is. She is enjoying Christmas with my Heavenly Father. Every year I add more and more decoration. I miss Mom and my husband, Dave so much. I thank God for friends who watches out for us. Thanksgiving has past and soon it will be Christmas. God bless all who reads this. Have a wonderful and joyous Christmas and remember to put CHRIST into CHRISTMAS. God bless! Linda

I still think of mom all the time won't be long until it is Christmas the best time a year that the family get together and still it isn't christmas without mom I really miss her alot I am not going to put a tree up this year because I lost the ones I love Tina,Elmer and Mom so this year it won't be a Christmas for me there isn't no one to see it any ways but they will always be in my heart I never forgot about them I really miss them alot I wish they all was here....I love you Mom from your daughter Joyce

Thought about my Mom a lot today. It will soon be six years since she went to her new home in Heaven. I know that she is happy with her Mother, Dad, brothers and other friends. I miss her so much. Mom loved Christmas so much and she has planted the love for Christmas within me. My house is decorate year 'round with Christmas. I will have my big tree up before Oct 21, in memory of my Mom. Mom bought the tree for me before she died but never saw it up. Before she died, she asked me if I would put the tree up when she came home. I said "Yes". She said, "What if I come home in Oct?" I told her that I would put it up whenever she came home. She never returned to her home here on earth but in Heaven, so before her day of death, I will have it up. In August, I put a white tree up in my dining room. I looks so nice and I know that Mom would love to see my house decorate. Every year, second saturday of the month of December, since 1998, I have open house for Christmas. There is a tree in almost every room, including the restrooms. Total trees this year will be 8. Five trees are already up. Every year I add more decoration than the year before. Well, so much about Christmas. I miss Mom. Love, Daughter, Linda

god bless u and all your family. may u live with our lord i n peace .

I really miss my mom it is so sad that she is gone and I know she is in a better place now and someday we will be there with here I still want to pick up the phone and call her alot of times I catch myself doing it.I still miss her and I will always have her here with me alot of memories.Love her daughter Joyce

Family reunion was past Sunday. I was able to go this year because my assistant pastor took the service. I enjoyed being with my family but I miss those who have gone on before. I think of them often but am glad that they are enjoying Heaven. Someday, I plan to be with them. I am still carrying on God's work here and waiting for the day Gabriel will blow the trumpet and God will call all His children home. Please Lord Jesus come. God loves everyone and wants everyone to be with Him in Glory. Love and miss my family, Linda

I came to this site quite unintentional. I cried, I felt you pain, sorrow and joy. Lord, come quickly and save the world and end the pain.

I have been thinking of you Mom alot and Tina alot too I wish you both was here I wish Mom you was here to see these picture's I had taken out in Arizona and that I can tell you how my trip was.Nikki is coming here soon to be with her Aunt Linda Mom your great grandchildren are growing up you would really be very proud of them and be proud of Alan and Val for taking these children in and he has a big house that is great to.I miss you on Mother's day I wish you was here and I really miss your calls but someday I will be in heaven with you.I love you and you are always in my heart.........Love your daughter Joyce

Thought of my Mom last night. We had a tornado watch and if Mom would have been here, I would have went home and spent the night with her. Mom used to worry about me working so far from home and living away from her. I missed Mom so much. Last saturday morning @ 3 AM I was crying and called a friend and told him how much I wish I could go to Mom. I saw Mom in my dream last Saturday morning. I miss Mom so much. I am still working for God and plan to meet God and my Mom again someday with all my other friends and family who have already seen Jesus.

Love, Linda

I want to say Happy Mother's Day to all the Mother's I wish Mom was here so I can say it to her but I will say it anyway's because I know she can hear it up in Heaven HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY MOM this is really from my heart I miss my mom and I really love her.I miss giving her something for her birthday and Mother's Day and at Christmas time sometimes I am sad because both Mom and Tina is gone and I want to say Happy Mother's Day to my Daughter Tina and I am thinking of my daughter everyday and she is still with me always and so is Mom there isn't a day gone by that I don't think about them I think about them everyday they are always on my mind I really do miss my Mom and my Daughter Tina someday I will see them in Heaven.God Bless you all.

I really miss my Mom right now. Mother's Day will be here within the next few days and I am thinking of MOM, my own motherhood, and my two daughters and my son. Motherhood and fatherhood are special and high callings from God. God entrusts Moms and Dads with His children, to love, care, and teach them. We only have our children a short time compared to the life they will live after they become adults. The time we have with our children is valuable! I am so proud of my daughters and my son. They have grown up to be responsible, loving, and caring. I have been blessed! I thank God for giving me a special Mom, I thank Him too for allowing me to be a Mom, and I thank Him for giving me so many years with my children and grandchildren. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS.

well it is Mom's birthday April 2 I want to say Happy Birthday to you Mom and that you are always in my heart and some day I will see you in heaven I love you Mom and always will.

I still miss my Mom and in May I am going out to Arizona to visit Alan and the 7 grantkids.I know my daughter Tina is up in Heaven with Mom and they both will always be in my heart I really miss mom and her phone calls there is a time where I sit and cry and there is a time where I am sad but I know someday I will be with them I really love and I miss my Mom.

We had a memorial service for my father on Saturday. This song was also played by kirk talley. It was such a comfort to our family. I also was with my father in the hospital when he left to be with the Lord. I would not have had it any other way. He told me when I was little, "when I pass away I want you to sing "How Great Thou Art". I decided instead to sing it to him in the hospital. There was such a peace after even though I sang it through my tears. He will be missed by us all. I am sorry for your loss. Someday we will all meet our loved ones once again & a glorius day that will be. May God Contine to bless you & your family.

Well another great grandson has been born. His name is Jacob Lane. Maybe my Mom can look down and see him. He belongs to Kevin and Jenny and he has an older sister, Jackie and an older brother, Kyle. His brother and sister loves him very much. I miss Mom a lot when special events happens. Someday we will all be together. Love Mom very much. Love, Linda

Been dreaming and thinking about Mom lately. I surely do miss Mom and my husband very much. In one my dreams lately, I was living in a house with many rooms and most of my church family was there. The dining room had a very big table and very shiny. Mom was there also. My sister, Judy, said that I may was dreaming about Heaven. Time is short and then I shall be with my Mom and Dave in heaven. Christ will be returning soon to take His children home to live with Him and The Father forever. The most important question for all is, "Are you ready?"

Linda

What a beautiful site-

She was lucky to have you for a daughter!

I am just sitting here and thinkig about allthe good times with Mom and Tina I know Mom and Tina is spending Christmas in Heaven together I wish they was here to spend Christmas with us I miss Mom and Tina and Elmer alot it wasn't must of a Christmas this year for me I just couldn't get in the mood they will always be in my heart I know they are looking down on us Merry Christmas to you all in Heaven.Love Joyce

It has been a rough year but still the blessings of God outweigh the difficulties of life. He is most certainly our stablility, security, and strength. I think of Mom during this blessed Christmas time and I miss her.

I can almost hear Mom say, "eat a chocolate kiss for me" and "sing Silent Night for me too". She is with us, in our hearts and minds this Christmas, the time of the year that she loved. Mom would want us to be happy and remember the good times we had when she was with us. That I will do, I will be happy and remember the good days of yesteryears. I will enjoy my family and friends, and cherish this time we have together. I like to think that Mom is up in heaven celebrating Christmas too and playing with the black poodle, named Stinky (Linda's dog), my precious bichon frise named Julius, and my chocolate brown lab granddog named Bill.

To all who read this page my wish for you is to have a blessed Christmas and one of the best new years! May God richly bless you and keep you in his care.

I am sitting here with tears rolling down my cheeks. It has been 5 years now and I still miss Mom so much. I can not work on this day because I miss Mom. I am happy for her that she is with our Heavenly Father but I miss the talks on the phone, the joking around we did together, putting up Christmas decorations, shopping, going out and trying new restaurant, etc. I have been decorating more for Christmas this year. Christmas was my Mom's favorite time of the year. My Christmas tree has been up all year. I was keeping my little niece, Nikki, and she wanted the tree to be kept up until her Mom returned for her. On May 21, Nikki's Mom, died and never came for her. I could not take the tree down, it is still up. I also miss my husband, David, who went Home also, four years ago. I will keep pressing on until I go by the rapture or by the grave and then I will be in my Heavenly home forever. I will be with my Heavenly Father, Jesus, Mom, David and all my other love ones who are there. Where will you spend eternity?

I still miss you Mom and offen think about you and Tina I know you and Tina are enjoying each other.I really miss you alot Mom some day I will meet you both in heaven be waiting at the gate you and Tina I will be with you soon when it is my time to leave this earth.I love you Joyce

Mom I miss you and now Tina is in heaven with you I miss you both very much and I know someday I will be with you and Tina day after day I think about you both sometimes I can't sleep because you both are on my mind I love you Mom and my daughter Tina very much and there will always be a place in my heart for you Mom and Tina I know how it feels to not having my dear Tina around any more or to hear her voice on the phone I love you both and I miss you both very much.

Jesus died for you, won't you live for Him? Allow the Lord to lead, guide, and direct your ways. I hope to see you in Heaven someday.

Alan is back home and with his family, we thank God for his safety. It is noble of him to take his sister's children to love and care for. God's blessings on him as he strives to do what is right. I pray that he and the family will put their faith and trust in the Lord for He will led, guide, and direct them. People need the Lord! I don't know where I'd be if I did not love the Lord and live for Him.

I don't know what to do without my dear Tina I really miss her now she is in heaven with all our Love ones Life was so short for her.Why did she have to died I never wanted something like this happen I wish I would have died before her.We never know when it is our time but the children will be well taken care of Alan and Val will give them a good home and I will go out there to visit them once a year.It was a shock to me when I called Valerie and she told me Tina pass away I won't get over this for a long time I wish I could hear Tina's voice again I still can't believe that she is gone I really miss her alot she was my daughter now she won't call me up and tell me her trouble like she always does no one knows how it feels when they loose a child and I lost my daughter and it hurts.She is always on my mind I can't sleep I cry in my sleep when I do sleep but the pain of looseing her does not go away I love her alot and I will always miss her.She was my life and her children my kids and grandchildren is what I live for without did I don't what I would do now she is in Heaven with her grandma and our other family I love you Tina and always will you will be always in my heart I will never forget you love always Mom.

I believe all dogs go to heaven for they enrich our lives. I loved Julius I so much but he had to leave this earth too young for I wanted to hold on to him like I wanted to hold on to my Mom and my other loved ones. Julius is in heaven now with Mom, she loved him too and perhaps she is playing with him now and calling him her "Snowball".

Not only will we miss our Julius but a few days after he died, we got word that Tina died. Oh, our hearts ache for her life was too short. What tragedy this was and a horrible death too! Going through this devastation would have been too hard for Mom to go through in this life with her bad heart. It is hard for our family and it is very hard for Tina's favorite aunt, Linda. Aunt Linda loved Tina as if she was her own daughter. Tina's mother, Joyce, is shocked and devastated. We especially think of Tina's dear children who do not have their Mom or Dad now. Our hearts go out to them.

Life is so precious and each day is a gift from God. Although we are all struggling with so much grief, we know God is our refuge and strength, a present help in trouble. He is our Rock, our Salvation, and He will never forsake us! We are leaning on His everlasting arms, we really need His comfort, strength, and peace right now. Knowing we can call upon God and He will help us, we will thank him now and be ever grateful to Him for all He does and continues to do for us.

Today was a very sad day. I miss my Mom so much. I missed looking back at the pew where she alway sat and she was not there beside Daddy. I miss her smile, laugh and special cough. When she got weak we told her to go Home. She is safe with Jesus, her Mom and brothers. Her memories lives on forever and forever in my heart. Love Mom Always, Linda

Happy Mother's Day Mom I wish you was still here I miss you so much I am so lonely without her I miss calling her up and tell her my troubles now I don't have no one to tell my troubles too. Mom was a good listener Mom will always be in my heart I love you Mom HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY.........Joyce

I am thinking so much of MY SPECIAL MOM because in a couple of days Mother's Day will be observed all over the world. I think of all that Mom has taught me and the love she gave me, and I am so grateful! My liquid sunshine tears flow in memory, respect, and honor of my dear MOM who lives forever in my mind and heart. Someday we will be together again, along with Mom's Mom Guessford, and Mammaw Straub. I have sunshine tears for them too.

Happy Mother's Day to a special Mom who is in Heaven now, always loved, and never forgotten.

If I could talk to my Mom, I would tell her how much I miss her. I remember back in July 1998, she wanted me and my husband to go to Texas and bring her great granddaughter, Nikki, back for a visit. Mom was in the hospital when we went out and was in 3 different hospital during Nikki's visit. Nikki was 3 then and now she is 8. She is visiting me for awhile and she is great company for Rusty and me. Mom would have loved to see her. Today is Dad's birthday. He misses Mom too. Easter was great with Nikki. We went to three Easter egg hunt. On Easter there was 150 plastic eggs hidden in the house and outside. Nikki had a great time finding them. Nikki sings with me in church now. Mom would be so proud of her. I heard today that there is no time in heaven. Just think Mom has been there now for over 4 years now. I wonder what it was like in heaven at Easter. I miss Mom and my husband, Dave very much. Someday, I hope to be in heaven with all my love ones and Jesus.

Linda

I am sorry Mom I miss your Birthday but I want to say a belated birthday.......Happy Birthday Mom I miss you I wish you was here so I can have someone to talk to it is so lonely without you and Elmer.I miss you both it is not the same anymore without you and Elmer I hope to see you some day and I want to say I love you Mom.I really miss Mom and Elmer so much but they will always be in my heart.

I didn't forget Mom and I never will. I have been preoccupied caring and praying for Jules these days. One night as Jules and I walked, I prayed to all my loved ones in Heaven asking them to intercede on his behalf. He is still young, I am praying for the "divine healing touch" of Jesus. Jules was Mom's recommended therapy for me and he has become not only a member of our family but almost human to me. God heals, he healed me of a hernia, if He cares for me, he cares for all of us and the little creatures he created. Praise You Lord and I thank You in advance for all you do and continually do, to bless us.

April 2 is my Mom's birthday. She will be spending another birthday in Heaven. I miss her so much. Nikki, her great granddaughter, is vacationing here with me for awhile. Nikki said that we will celebrate her birthday as if she was here.

Mom is at peace with Jesus. She is not here where a war is going on again. She is where there is perfect peace. One day, I will be with her.

Julius has cancer and we are praying that God will heal him. He is only 8 1/2 years old. They removed his tumor but now they want to take his leg off.

If Mom could, it would be great if she could ask Jesus to heal Julius.

Happy Birthday, Mom. Love you forever and miss you.

Linda

Well time is flying. I truly do miss my Mom and husband but I know that they are safe in heaven. I also know that whatever happens in this life, God is in total control. A lot is going on here. I believe that time is short here on this earth. We need to look up for Christ will be coming back for all who are ready and know him as their personal Saviour. I know that Mom and Dave are having a joyful time in Heaven. I am waiting for the day when I will join them and my other love ones, grandparents, uncles, aunts, and many friends.

Miss you MOM and DAVE. Forever and ever until I am with you. Linda

As I write this, war could begin anytime. Mom is safe in heaven. If she would be living on this earth she would be concerned not only for us but especially for Alan and the other soldiers who are in the Middle East prepared to go into battle with the terrorists. They will fight for our freedom, freedom and peace for the poor people in Iraq. We are reminded of what the terrorists did to our own innocent, good people in United States on 9/11.

We, Christians know that we are safe and God is with us no matter what happens but we are concerned for the unsaved. We are in troubled times but we need not worry for God is still in control if we put our trust in Him. He tells us He will not leave us or forsake us, we are His children. God is our Heavenly Father, He loves and cares for us as our earthly father does. What a comfort knowing this! The Church has a great responsibility to reach out to people, to minister to them now and when tragedy strikes. We all need to be on our knees continually now! We need to be prepared Christians! My life is a prayer right now, and I claim the promises that GOD IS IN CONTROL AND HE IS WITH US!

I haven't wrote in a while I still miss Mom everyday I will see her some day in Heaven she is enjoying the angels I wish Mom was still here she is still in my heart and always will be I love you Mom.Love Joyce

It will soon be another year - 2003. I miss Mom and Dave very much. Nikki is living with me for awhile and we had a wonderful Christmas. I have been sick since Christmas and pray that I soon get well. Some day, I will be able to join Mom and Dave and live forever with them in Heaven with my Heavenly Father. I know that everyday they are enjoying being together with the angels in Heaven. Happy New Year to all who reads and please if you don't God as your personal Saviour - start the New Year off right by asking Him into your heart. God bless all. Linda

Merry Chirstmas Mom I wish you was here with us at Christmas I miss you Mom I wish you was here to see Nikki she is a cute little girl I think about you offen Christmas isn't the same any more I can't get in the Christmas spirit I miss all of the loved ones.Some day we will be all together.Joyce

I want to say Merry Christmas and I wish Mom was here with us I miss her very much I still think about her and I wish she was here so I can call her up and talk to her about things I can't talk to any one else I really miss her she was a good Mom it is so lonely without her I love you Mom.Joyce

Today is Thanksgiving and I miss Mom and Dave very much. I did not celebrate Thanksgiving today, I will have Thanksgiving on Saturday. Nikki is coming from Texas tomorrow and will be staying with me for awhile. We will celebrate Thanksgiving together on Saturday. This was my favorite holiday with Dave but Christmas is my favorite to remember Mom. I have an angel bear and sometimes it plays music without touching it. This bear belonged to Mom. It played the other night and I said "Hi Mom". It makes me feel close to her when it plays. Love and Miss you, Linda

Today is 4 years since my Mom left me and went to Heaven. Today I took off work and went shopping with a friend. We had fun and I thought of Mom. I have my Christmas tree up that my Mom got me before she passed away. She never got to see it decorate but ask if we could put it up in Oct if she got home. I told her that as soon as she was up to it that we could put it up. My Mom never got to help so now I alway have it up and decorated by the day of her death. I miss her so much and am waiting to be with her some day. Linda

Just got back from vacation with Dad and Denny. We went to Virginia Beach and visited Stephanie and her family. Had a great time. Miss Mom but know that she could not have walked to shop at the stores there. We went to three Christmas stores and I thought of her. I bought more Christmas decoration and am beginning to decorate my house. Christmas was her and my favorite time of year. I wish she could be here and see how I decorate the house. I miss my Mom very much. I thought of my husband while in Va Beach and all the good times we had going to Va Beach. He is now in Heaven with God and my Mom and some day I will be there too. Miss and love them very much. Linda

I miss you mom and I always will I have met a nice guy and he treat me good I don't hear much from the family any more we don't keep in touch like we use too it is just like every one is too busy I guess my new guy name is Dave and I know Mom would like this one but I wish the family was close it is just like we are all fallen apart or something it is not like it use to be.I love you Mom and I miss you very much I wish you was here so I could talk to you there is alot on my mind and I just can't talk to no one but you Mom I hope some day I will meet you again in heaven.I love you and I think about you alot.I miss you mom...Love Joyce

I missed my Mom and husband last month when my family celebrated Rusty and my birthday. The theme of the party was 'Christmas in July'. Christmas was my Mom's favorite time of year and I have carried on the tradition of Christmas. You see, Christmas is the time when we celebrate Jesus birth. If Jesus had not came as a baby and died on the cross, we would be lost. The party was 'one of the kind'. There was a Christmas tree decorated, singing, Christmas carols, jokes and even Santa. Mom and Dave were missing but oh I'm sure we felt their presents. I thank my family and friends for celebrating my 50th birthday this way. God bless all who reads this. Linda

Well, another 4th of July has past without my Mom or my husband. The 4th of July was our wedding day. I was so happy 21 years ago when I was married and my Mom was there at my wedding. I was so happy that she was able to share in this special day. Without my Mom, I would never have been born. I miss her so much. Soon Rusty and I will be having a birthday. Mom used to have a cake decorated with "Happy Birthday Linda and Rusty". I miss these special days. I sometime wish I could talk to her again but I will have to wait until God takes me home or Jesus comes backs and takes my by the rapture. I miss Dave and Mom very much. Linda

I still think about Mom alot I sure do miss her she will always be in my heart and some day I hope to be up in heaven with her I love you mom and always will there is something missing in our life and that is our love ones I wish they was here with us today.We are all gods children and some day he will call us home I love you Mom.your daughter Joyce

I wish my Mom would have been here this week. Monday, my dog, Rusty, had an operation. Rusty had a tumor removed from his tongue. He is doing fine now. I thank God that He brought him thru the surgery and is doing well. My Mom was always there for the rough time in life and now she is gone. I miss her very much. Love, Linda

This is another day the Lord has given us here on this earth. A wonderful day it is! I was privileged the other day when my Dad and brother came to visit me. It was a great having them visit and we enjoyed the time together! I love my family!

Another birthday, another mother's day, another year, another day without Mom. We do not realize how much we will miss someone until that person is not with us anymore. It will be the same for our loved ones when we are gone from this earth. MAKE and TAKE TIME with those we love now for it is later than we think. These are just my thoughts and what I am pondering on this day. Love to all!

Happy Mother's Day to my Mom I still miss her and she will always be in my heart so much that had happen and alot on my mind I sure do miss all of the love ones that has pass away I love you Mom........Joyce

Sunday will be Mothers Day. This will be 4 years without Mom on Mothers Day. I truly do miss Mom very much. I wish that I could talk to my Mom again. So much has happened since she went away. The chaplin at work that help me with Mom's and Dave's death will be transferring to Texas. Mom was my best friend. Happy Mothers Day to all. Love and miss Mom, Linda

I went to Elmer's grave on May 5 and I know Mother's Day is coming and I want to say Happy Mother's day to you Mom and to let you know I am still thinking about you and I really do miss you I love you Mom........Love Joyce

Happy Birthday Mom I love you Joyce

Since yesterday, I have been so sad. I went to my Mom's grave and her candle was gone. I believe it was thrown away. Her flag was also removed and place between two graves. I put her flag back on her grave but could not find her candle. I don't believe that it was stolen because it had the cross broken off and I was going to replace the cross yesterday. There was track marks on her grave where the grave digger went through to dig a grave close to hers. I was going to lit her candle for Easter and her birthday. We are only allow to put candles or flags on her grave now for only 10 days at a time. Tomorrow will be her birthday. I had a tribute put in the newspaper for my Mom for Easter. I have so many good memories of my Mom. I miss her so much and someday I will be with her again. Linda

Easter will soon be here and I think of how Mom used to like to eat the ears off our Easter bunnies. One year they came out with BIG EAR Bunny and I got one for her. I miss her so much. I will soon be celebrating my 50th birthday and wish she would be here with us. Miss her and love her very much. Linda

I like coming here into this world of cyberspace, who would have ever thought the world would come to this? Modern technology is advancing, continually advancing! As wonderful as all this is in this world, we do not know what is yet to come! It is said, "the best is yet to come", and I believe it! It is also said, "how could it get any better?", and I believe that too.

I want to thank the owner of this web site, what a wonderful ministry you have provided! Also, thank you all who visit and I pray for God's richest blessings to be upon you.

Love to you and your families!

Your love for your family lives on in them and is shared with all the lives they touch.

A very nice tribute to your Mother.

Life just isn't the same for we miss Mom very much. We have many wonderful memories of her. Life does go on, we need to live in the present and look forward to a wonderful future and when we will see her again in Heaven. Live the present the best we know how; have faith and hope for the future.

I know Mom is asking the angels to protect us and/or get messages to us somehow. You know she was always concerned about our welfare and she wanted the best for us. She is still thinking of us in her spiritual being now.

Just like Mom, our Heavenly Father loves us too. He does not want anyone to perish but to live with Him in Heaven someday. He wants the best for us too. In His Word, Matthew 11:28-30 God revealed through His precious Son Jesus His promise of love, healing and peace. He wants a relationship with us for it will change meaningless, wearisome burdens and toils into spiritual productivity and purpose. How can we not accept Jesus and live for Him; Jesus who has the eternal insurance for us?!

I am missing my Mom very much these days. I had a dream with her in it but I couldn't get close enough to her and she couldn't get close to me. I felt her presence today when my Christmas bear played twice this morning before I left to go to physical therapy. I know that someday I will be reunited with her. Jesus is my best friend and then came my Mom and husband. I miss them both.

Linda

Again Christmas has come and gone without Mom. I really miss her. I have the house decorated inside and out. I know that she would love to see it and if she were here, she would have helped me decorate. Christmas was her favorite season. I decorated her grave with garland and tree and lit her candle on Christmas eve. My spiritual Mom is in heaven now with my real Mom and husband. I miss them all. The other day, my bear, played "Silent Night" when I walked by. I thought of Mom for that was her favorite song. The bear played automatic without pressing her hand. It has not played since last Christmas. I think of my Mom when it plays and wonder sometime if she makes it plays. Each day it gets harder without her. Soon it will be New Years Day - 2002. I wonder if Jesus will come back to take us home in the year 2002. I am so homesick to go and be with my love ones, Mom, Dave, Mom Shifflett, all my grandparents, grandson, aunts and uncles. God bless all who reads and repent before it is too late. Linda

I miss you mom this time a year it is really hard for me I went up to decorate Elmer's grave it really look nice I do miss you both and Mom I want to say Merry Christmas and that you are still in my heart not a day go by that I think about you I think about you every day and I wish you was still here with us I love you Mom and some day I will see you..........Love always Joyce

Another year has done by with out Mom and I miss her very much I really wish she was here with us for Thanksgiving I miss calling her up and talking to her on the phone.Now Christmas is coming and will go by without her I know she is looking down at us every year she is always in my heart and I will never stop thinking about her I love you Mom and always will.

Miss my Mom very much. Another year has passed without her and I miss her today as I did the day she left me. She will always be in my heart. I have the house decorated for Christmas with the tree decorated that she purchased for my new home before she died. I wondered if she knew that she would never see it decorated. Her grave is decorated also along with her parents' grave. My Mom loved Christmas and at her funeral we sang her favorite Christmas Carol, "Silent Night". Someday we will be together again. Last night, her neighbor and I were remembering things that she would say and was laughing and wondering if she was looking down at us and laughing also. Mom's neighbor got two kittens and one got caught in the back of the refrigerator and we were trying to get it out and then after we got the kitten out we patch the hole so that they could not get in there again. That is also when we thought of Mom and things that she would be saying to us if she was here. Mom's memory lives on. My family is planning a 50th Birthday party for me and I so wish that Mom could be here. I am thankful that she was alive to attend my wedding. Mom was my best friend. Mom was a part of me. I knew my Mom very well. I knew when she was "crying on the inside". We had so many fun days today. She would love to help me decorate my tree for Christmas. She loved to go shopping and we would laugh and have so much fun together. I truly do miss Mom. Someday we will be together in Heaven, until then, I will continue to preach and live for God. Linda

I miss you so much mom so much is going on with America I am so glad that you and Elmer is home in heaven with Jesus I am always thinking about you mom and also Elmer I really miss you both but the family will always keep in touch with one another and one day we will all see you in heaven I will always love you Mom and you will always be in my heart.....Joyce

Many things have happened in America lately. I am so glad that Mom and Dave is already in there new home with Jesus. Some rumors say that today will be another tragey for America but I guess we will later. America needs to get back to God. God is giving us a wake up call. Yesterday, I spent the day in a Christian Women's Retreat and I must leave to go again to today. Whatever happens today and the days to come, remember God is in total control. Nothing will happen that God doesn't know and He cares for His people. Pray for America, leaders of our country, and all Nations. We must pray that those who are in on the terrorism be draw to the true and living God. They have a soul also. We must forgive them and pray for them. God bless all you reads this. I love and miss my Mom and husband, Dave, very much. Linda

Hi Grandma, In the wake of all this tragidy.. tousands were and still are affected. They were, like you, called Home to be with our Lord and Savior. I miss you greatly, think of you often and pray for all the families in their time of need. God Bless Us All. Love,T

GOD BLESS AMERICA! Thinking of Mom too as well as the Americans who were killed by the attacks of the terrorists. I pray for the terrorists' and the victims' families.

I have many thoughts of Mom these days! I had a "flashback" a couple of days ago, I remember my schooldays when Mom would come to elementary school at lunchtime and buy us: Denny, Linda, Joyce and I ice cream. My favorite ice cream was the "ice cream sandwich". I had that memory one day as I sat in the hospital snack bar eating an ice cream sandwich. Not only did we receive that extra treat at lunchtime but it was Mom's way of saying "I miss you when you are at school".

I sure do miss you Mom I am glad daddy is ok it was a little scary I didn't want him to go home to be with Mom yet we need him here I want to say something in Mom's place what she would say (It will all come out in the wash)I love you mom you are always in my heart some day I will see you again......Love Joyce

P.S. Sorry, I am still "upset", see I spelled passed wrong, spelled it pasted, ha,ha. I am glad I can laugh at myself for I am far from being perfect. I won't be perfect until I get to heaven. I have much to learn too. I love my Dad very much. He has many fine qualities, I was privileged to have him for my Father.

It is nice to visit here when thinking of Mom. We had a scare with Dad lately. The family did not want him to have to leave us and we thank the Lord, he was spared and permitted to live on longer. Hopefully the reminder of his years are enjoyable and happy with the family. (I wish I could get him to visit me, I remember how many times Mom would encourage him to come for a visit, now he doesn't want to come at all). But I still keep going to see him. He is his ole self, stubborn and set in his ways as usual, he misses Mom. Mom is not here to keep him straight, ha, ha, ha. Mom would laugh when we talked like that, oh how I miss her. This difficult time that pasted was painful for me because I thought of Mom so much, we all were thinking of her. We still have lessons to learn about life and God isn't finished with us yet. Love you Mom, you are still in my heart and mind, always will be.

Well another year gone by without you mom I still think about you and it was really hard when Elmer's birthday was here and gone it was so hard because you all was on my mind when Tena was here visiting the first week didn't go so well because you all was on my mind but her second week went great I will always miss you Mom and you will always be on my mind.....I LOVE YOU MOM................Joyce

Another year has past and Rusty and I celebrated our birthday without Mom or Dave (my husband). It turned out to be a good one. Missed the cake that Mom used to get us from the TBY (sugarfree vanilla). I had a hard time on 1 July, when it was Dave's birthday. Fourth of July was a little rough because Dave and I would have celebrated our 20th year anniversary together. I was invited to some friends house for supper that evening and had a good time. Dave celebrated his birthday and our anniversary in heaven. I have lost more good friends lately. One of my preacher friend was killed in a car accident on I-81 a few weeks ago. His wife is having a hard time. There has been other friends in the past month that have died and I guess they are with Jesus also. Miss Mom and Dave very much but will someday be together in Heaven.

Well Tena and the grandchildren are here visiting I wish you was here to see them I miss you Mom and you will always be in my heart I have to tell you this my doorbell rang 11 times all by itself no one was ringing it I put another battery in it thinking it was the battery but it wasn't it still ring after that well Mom you are still on my mind and I love you and miss you too.......Joyce

I missed my Mom very much. Last Friday, May 25, I missed her so much that I called her next door neighbor and talked to her about my Mom. I cried that day because I just needed to talk to my Mom so bad. I miss her very much. I know that she is happy in heaven with no more pain but I miss her so much. I am waiting for the day to be together in heaven with Mom Guessford, my Mom, Papa, Mamaw, Poppy, Dave, all my aunts, uncles and friends who have gone on before. Most of all, I want to see my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, for if it wasn't for God sending His Son to earth and Jesus being willing to come to such a wicked place. Jesus had to come, be tempted, suffer and die so that we may have life eternal some day with Him and His Father in a beautiful land thoughout eternity. All we have to do to inherit such a place is to ask Jesus to forgive us of all our sins and live with Him forever in our heart. Jesus loves us so much that He stretch out His hands and die for us. Let us live for Him today for soon He will be returning to take us home with Him forever and ever. Love and miss Mom, Linda

Happy Mother's Day in Heaven!

Today is Mother's Day and another year without being with my Mom in church. I miss her very much and each day is harder without her. I miss picking up the phone and chatting and saying "I Love You". Someday I will be with her forever in Heaven. Until Jesus calls me home, I know that Mom is enjoying herself with him and no more pain. Love Mom always. Linda

Mother's Day... I miss you so very much Grandma. I remember one year I wrote a poem for you for Mother's Day. It was all about my Grandma.. how special you were to me, loving, kind, caring, giving, and always able to put a smile on my face. I am who I am today because of you, the things that you taught me will stay with me always and for that I am grateful. Now that I am a mother I can appreciate everything even more. I have you to thank for teaching me what is most important in life.. love, the Lord & family. The positve impact you have left on so many lives will be around for generations to come. I can just picture your smiling face looking down from the Heavens above with great pride and joy. You are trully the BEST mom that anyone could ever be blessed to have. I LOVE YOU GRANDMA! much love always

Well Sunday is Mother's Day I want to say Happy Mother's Day Mom I really miss you and giving you something on Mother's Day I wish you was still here with us you are always in my heart I think about you every day some day I will see you at heaven's gate waiting for me I love you Mom........Your Daughter Joyce

Well it is almost Mother's Day and Mom is always in my heart I still miss her and Mom I want you to know that I am doing ok I still miss Elmer and he will be in my heart forever and someday I will see them both Mom Happy Mother's Day I have my day's sometimes Mom the family is staying in touch I love you Mom.

My thoughts are on Mom today and I am thinking of our family. I am working at the hospital now in the Surgical Waiting Room, I believe in my heart that God has plans for me there. I empathize with those dear people who wait, sometimes in life and death situations, for their loved one to recover from surgery. I am also seeing miracles and I see the way God uses the doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff. The Lord isn't finished with me yet, He has work for me to do! Mom would be proud as she was of us all when she saw the work we were doing for the Lord.

she was a wonderful lady we will all miss her so much.

Tomorrow will be Easter and my brother's birthday. I remember one year Easter was on my Mom's birthday. It made her so happy. Over 2000 years ago, Christ rose from the dead so that we may have life. I miss her so much but someday I will be with her. Last year at this time, I was in the hospital for about 5 hours from a car accident. I thought I was dead but God saw to keep me here a little longer. I was not afraid of death because, you see, Jesus has the keys to Hell and death and I knew that I would be with Him. Someday, I will be with Him. Someday, I will see Jesus, either I will go by the way of the grave or meet Him in the air when He returns for us. I miss Mom and Dave very much especially at time like these. Tomorrow, we will have an Easter program in church and I wish they could be there to see it. Love you both, Linda

I still miss Mom I wish she was still here with us on Easter I want to say Happy Easter Mom I offen think about her I wish she was here and I know she has the angels watching over us I love you Mom.

I still miss Mom I wish she was still here with us on Easter I want to say Happy Easter Mom I offen think about her I wish she was here and I know she has the angels watching over us I love you Mom.

Dearest Grandma, You have been on my mind a lot lately, and I must admit, at times, I just sit and cry because I miss you so very much. I am only one of many who longs to hear your voice, see your smiling face, to feel your love and warmth. I yearn for the day when we shall be reuntited once again. I can only pray that when the time comes for me to leave this world, you will be the angel that takes me to Heaven. That is a day that i will be looking forward to... until then... Peace and Love to all. Happy Birthday Grandma...much love always, Tena

I loved my grandmother,not for what she had because she didn't have much, but for her love and unselfishness. She gave me alot more than material things, she gave me her undying love. She also put a smile on my face and helped show me that not everything in the world is bad. She was living proof of that. I will be forever grateful and thankful that she was my Grandma. Happy Birthday....God is blessing you.

Yes, today is a special day in celebration of Mom's birth here on earth! I celebrate her love that is cherished and retained in my memories. She left us with many wonderful memories.

Just ten days ago, we celebrated Uncle Loverne Heistand's life, he just went to his heavenly home too, his birthday was also today.

Many of our loved ones are leaving us and that makes me think.....we are the next generation. What will we leave behind for our loved ones to remember? What are we doing for Christ? "Only one life, it will soon be past, only what's done for Christ for last".

Well today is Mom's birthday April 2 I think about her all the time,I want to say (Happy Birthday Mom)I miss her so much someday I will see her again she was a good mom she meant everything to me I love you mom. ~HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM~

Today is the day that the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. I am so thankful to my sister for creating this webpage to come and write. It makes me feel close to my Mom. Today my Mom is celebrating her 74th birthday in Heaven with Jesus. I miss my Mom very much. We were very close friends as well as Mother and daughter. The saying that Judy wrote that Mom always wrote in autographs books "Only one life 'tis soon be past, only what's done for Christ will last". She told everyone to ponder on this. What are you doing for Christ today? I found a plaque in Mom's basement with this quote on it and it is now in my bedroom as a reminder of Mom and also to keep living for God. My friend's mother died Monday and I went to the viewing and funeral but my heart broke. It brought back memories of my Mom's death. Her mother was in a casket just like my mother. I miss my Mom very much and would never wish her back. Someday I will go by the grave or Christ will return and take me home to be with Him, Mom, my husband, Dave, and other loves one. Until that day, I will keep working for my Heavenly Father, God, and try to win more souls for the kingdom. Bless all who reads these webpages and remember - Christ is going to return - Are you ready? Linda

I still think about Mom and I will always miss her it will soon be Easter and almost Mom's birthday April 2 I want to say (Happy Birthday Mom)I love you. Your Daughter Joyce

Life is so short, we realize it when our loved ones have left this earth and we are left behind to mourn and miss them. We must make the most of what life we have left, make every day special, love and cherish our loved ones, take good care of ourselves for them. Above all these things, love the Lord with all our heart, soul, and mind. There was a saying that Mom liked and it had meaning to her: "Only one life, it will soon be passed, only what's done for Christ will last". Ponder that thought, does it have meaning to you too? Love to all who read and may God richly bless you spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

Somedays are very lonely without my Mom and Husband who have already gone to Heaven to be with Jesus. Today is one of those days, so I decided to visit my Mom's web page. I have so much that I want to tell her. I have put Easter trees on both of their graves. Mom will soon be having a birthday on the 2nd of April. Her son will be 50 this year. We are having him a birthday party at my house. We'll miss Mom celebrating with us. I still remember the pool party that she had for me one year. I also remember the 65th birthday party that we had for my husband. Mom helped me so much in having a great party for him and he was so surprised. I surely do miss them both so much. Plan to see them someday. Linda

I miss Mom very much and I miss Elmer also I wish they was still here with us today but some day we will be with our love ones in heaven soon it will be Mom's birthday I think about her alot but I have alot happy memorys I miss you Mom and I love you. Joyce

Miss Mom very much, I think of her often, especially during happy times. I loved sharing with her the happy times of my life. Her family is growing too, another addition to our family..... One of the most recent blessings and "happy time" was when "her" Jen gave birth to Kyle. He would be her 14th great grandchild, my 7th grandchild. She would love hearing the stories about the "McFarland Boys", Jeff's three sons. I could tell her too many stories of Charlotte and Preston, Stephanie's children. These grandchildren are one of the joys of my life. Mom loved her family too and was proud of each one of them!

I miss my Mom and husband very much. I put Valentine's decoration on their grave and maybe next Saturday will change to Easter trees. Holidays and special days are so hard without them. There has been alot of deaths at work (relatives of employees)- 7 so far this year. When death comes around - I miss them even more. Mom will soon be celebrating another birthday in Heaven. Miss her very much. Linda

I was sitting here thinking of all the good memories that mom and I had together from little growing up I miss her so much it don't seen possible that she is gone I wish she was still here with us but she will always be in my heart.I miss you and love you your daughter Joyce.

Thank you for posting this song on your website. My Grandmother was diagnosed in Nov 2000 with inoperable colon cancer. She doesn't have very long left. I think we will play this song at her funeral, when the time comes. Thanks again Debbie

I think of Mom everyday Christmas comes around and she is not here I really miss Mom around the Holidays.But someday the good Lord will take me to be with Mom Linda has bears going off and I have doorbell ringing I know it has to be angels letting me know eveything is all right isn't a day go by that I think about Mom someday I will meet all our love ones God Bless you all.Joyce

God bless all who read this page and I pray that you feel and know our love and God's love for you. If you haven't received the Lord into your heart yet, please don't hestitate and don't delay. Why not make your eternal decision right now? If you need help get in contact with someone who can help you. I am sure Linda will help you and I will try too.

We all buy insurance in one form or another, so why not put God's insurance on your life's policy?

I love you!

Surely do miss my love ones. Mom went first to be with God and then 10 1/2 months later my husband went to be with God. I know that they are in a better place but I miss them so much. I dream of them and feel their presence when I see them in my dream. I have a Christmas bear and this year it has played by itself when I walked into the family room. I wonder sometime if Mom or Dave has sent an angel to play it and let me know that everything will be alright. I long to be with Jesus and them. I had an accident and thought it was my time to go but God said that my work is not done here on earth yet. Someday soon, I believe that He will be coming back to gather His children. To all you may read this - Are you ready if God should call you home? If not read I John 1:9 and do as it says. God bless all who reads. Linda

That was really nice what my sister Judy wrote Mom was our life and apart of us went with her like Judy said the chain is broken but it will link together when our god calls us home then we will all be together I love you Mom and some day I will be up in heaven with you and I really miss you.She was really a wonderful mother so careing and loveing I am thankful I have my family here my sisters,brother,and my daddy,and I have my Children and Grandchildren but I really miss mom she was always there for me and also Elmer was here for me I miss him alot too now my family is here for me well mom you take care of everyone up in heaven I love you and I love Elmer too I think about you both all the time and I still cry you all will be always in my heart. With all my love Joyce Joyce

Just leting you know I was her. It is very nice, to let others see what someone meant to there family. As you know I lost my Mother in 1999 29th of April. miss her a lot. Thanks for sharing.

I was just reading "Free Press" which is a excellent newspaper published by the Four States Christian Missions, Inc. This newspaper Mom subscribed for me many years ago and it has been a source of spiritual benefit to me. There is a poem in the newspaper this month by Geraldine R. Nicholas which has meaning to me now that I think of Mom. I hope all who read this will think about the words and I pray that it will have meaning to them as well.

"The Broken Chain"

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name; In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; For part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide, And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one... The chain will link again.

Please take time to read the mystery of "The Resurrection Body" in the Holy Word found in I Corinthians 15:35-58. There is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. The spiritual body did not come first, but the natural body, and after that the spiritual body.

If you have time to comment or share any thoughts, please email me.

I love you, be good!

Judy

We miss you!

Another Christmas and New Year has past with Mom in Heaven. Mom loved Christmas very much. I cried this year as her favorite song played, "Silent Night". It won't be long until the trumpet sounds and we can all be together in Heaven with God, Jesus, Holy Ghost, Mom, Dave, Mom Guessford, Mamaw, Papa and all our friends and family. I miss them all. I will live for God and someday be home with them and there will be no more tears. Love, Linda

Happy New Year I miss you Mom I miss calling you up on New Years and saying it to you I think about you every day I wish you was still here with us but some day I will see you again I love you.

I am here at Linda's house, helping her preparing the Thanksgiving Meal, which we are having tomorrow. The family will be gather together but I wish Mom could be here with us. I sure miss Mom on the Holidays. We are making Mom's favorite stuffing. Mom's memories will always live on and on and on. Christmas will be coming soon. Mom's favorite Holiday. She will surely be missed. I love you Mom.

Love, Joyce

Today is Thanksgiving Day but we will be celebrating tomorrow for this is when we can all be together. Part of the family met and had breakfast together today but it is not like having Mom with us too. Miss Mom today. Thanksgiving is a time to be with family. I remember one Thanksgiviing, Aunt Dorothy made the turkey for us and we had a snow storm. My Aunt lived about 1/2 block away up on a hill and Mom told my brother and I to go and get the turkey. Mom told us to take my sleigh and pull the turkey down the hill in the snow. These are the good memories that carries on from generation to generation. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. Love and miss Mom, Linda

This is to family and friends who visit Mom's web page, this I write in her remembrance.

As we get busy with the holidays: shopping, baking and cooking, decorating, socializing, it is the time we spend with our family and friends that is most precious and what we should most focus on. It is not the presents we receive or give because those things we can not take with us when our life here on earth is ended and we go on to a greater dimension.

Little of life's possessions will stand the test of time. Most of them will eventually be worn, cracked, lost, or sold to someone who probably never knew our name. Some may be kept and cherished as family heirlooms, hopefully, with a story that tells the future generation about the past. But the time invested in our family, in our friends, in those we love, will never be wasted or lost. For the time and energy invested in loving others truly has timeless qualities.

There's only one gift in all the world that can be given by yourself alone and only one gift you can give that is truly unique. That is the gift of love, it is life's memories, captured, preserved, and passed on to the people you love. Only you can preserve those memories, those timeless treasures of what you have lived, what you have experienced, what you have learned, and who you have loved. Your love has the capacity to shape memories, to shape souls. What you do today determines what becomes of your life and name tomorrow. Every day is a timeless treasure!

The gift of love is far more beautiful, far more valuable, than any priceless heirloom because it gives the opportunity to invest in "hearts" and "souls" of the people we love.

So this holiday reach out to those you love, gather them in your arms, tell them you love them. Believe it to be the treasure of tomorrow. It will live long beyond a lifetime, it will become a tresured memory, your legacy as you walk forward, step by step into eternity.

There is a Thanksgiving prayer that I read over the Internet that I would like to share with you. I learned many years ago when I was faced with a life and death situation with one of my dear children that we should not take anything for granted and this poem has significance.

O God, when I have food, help me to remember the hungry; When I have work, help me to remember the jobless; When I have a home, help me to remember those who have no home at all; When I am without pain, help me to remember those who suffer and in remembering, help me to destroy my complacency; intensify my compassion to be concerned enough to help by word and deed, those who cry out for what we take for granted.

This Thanksgiving, as always, I have so much to be thankful for and I could go on and on with the list but one in particular, I leave with you and that is: I am thankful for a Mom who taught me so much about life, told me often and showed me she loved me. My love to you too, Mom, love that lasts a lifetime and goes on and on to generations to generations to come.

I hope you are inspired to love. I wish we could all be together over the holidays but because of distance, time, and money we can not be. You all are in my heart and mind though and I wish Happy Holidays to you and your family. I love you!

Judy

As the holidays are fast approaching, my thoughts are on Mom. Her presence is missed, however, her memories and her love will last forever in my heart and mind.

I am always thinking of Mom I miss all the good times that we had together thanksgiving is coming up I wish Mom would be right there with us enjoying turkey dinner with us and all the memory's of her still live on I remember when she would squeeze my hand and she would put me to the ground but she did it out of fun I miss all of that I wish she was here right now to squeeze my hand again,I love you,and I miss you.Love Joyce

Thinking about Mom and remembering all the good times we shared together. Many things of hers I see everyday and it brings back memories. I wish I could see her, talk to her, and squeeze her hand. Squeezing our hand was a special thing she did. I miss her so much. I miss just talking to her and I miss the jovial way she talked. Forever loving her, Judy

I have visit your grave last week I went with Daddy and Denny up to see it and this Sunday I am going to go up to Elmers grave I love you Mom and I still miss you and Elmer so I hope to see you both some day.

Today we went to Mom's grave and lit her candle for her. There was an article in the newspaper for Mom today. I miss her so much. This week has been very hard on me. I have cried many times wanting my Mom to be here. Mom would love the Christmas tree this year. The tree rotates and looks so beautiful. Miss my Mom very much.

I am thinking about Mom today she has always been on my mind I still miss her but there is alot of memories of her it don't seem that she has been gone that long I miss her smiling face even around Christmas I really miss her on the Holidays I Love You Mom.

Thinking of Mom today. I see all the Christmas decorations in the stores already and it makes me think of how much Mom loved Christmas. It was the best holiday and time of the year for her. She made Christmas special for all of us and gave us lasting memories of Christmas' past. She loved it when Dad played Santa, he would don his Santa suit and beard and go to schools, retirement homes, hospitals. He would share that special Christmas love to all. Every Christmas now, Mom will be remembered for her love for all of us.

I just wish everyone everywhere would have that Christmastime love all year long. Judy

I was thinking of Mom today. There are so many happy memories of her!

Thinking of you today.

Been thinking about Mom lately. It will soon be two years since she went to be with Jesus. Her sister, Dorothy, and I are getting the house ready for Christmas. Before she died, I promised her that we would put the tree up as soon as she came home. We now put the tree up and decorate the house in October in memory of her. Mom loved Christmas and decoration so much that I feel her presence when the tree and house are lit. This will be the third Christmas without Mom and second Christmas without my husband, who is in heaven also. Will always love Mom, Linda and her sister Dorothy

I am thinking of you always Mom this is Monday morning I am getting ready for work your memories still live on you will always be in my heart I miss you alot I love you Mom take care of Elmer and Dave and all our love ones up there.

What a lasting effect a person can leave behind! Mom did just that. Her courage was admired, her love was like Christ's love, her wisdom commendable! She will ever live on in our memories and hearts. She is a legacy to all of us whose lives she touched.

I truly miss her as do many others.

Just thinking about you on this day. I miss you so very much Grandma. I thank God everyday for allowing us to be a part of the same family, the wisdom you gave to me, as well as the courage and strength that you gave me growing up has had a lasting effect. I love and miss you more than anyone could know. Until we meet again Grandma. Love always, Tena

I miss you Mom, especially at holidays. There is a void in my life since you are gone. I remember the wonderful times we had together and the love we shared. Until we meet in paradise, I have you always in my mind and heart. Judy

Dearest Mom,

It is a year today that you had to leave us here on earth. It seems like yesterday when we said goodbye to you yet it seems so long since we last saw you, held your hand, and kissed you. Oh, how much we miss you! We think of you often, especially when we hear or sing your favorite song, "Silent Night". We know you are resting in Heavenly Peace.

Our family remains close and we take care of each other which we know you would want and you would be proud of us.

I'll love you as long as I live, Judy

Grandma was a special person. She cared so much for her family and friends. She would never forget to tell her grandchildren and great grandchildren that she loved them and to be good. (which was difficult for some of us especially me!)

Her sense of humor was remarkable! She had little nicknames for all of us and she always was joking around. Even when my sister and I visited her in the hospital for the last time, she had us laughing.

I guess the biggest thing Grandma showed me was her Christ-like acceptance of others. She accepted my wife as her own grandchild! Sure, she gave people a hard time but she did this because she cared about others and only wanted the best for everyone.

Just as Alan said, she was a role model to everyone!

We love you and miss you, Big Jeff, Wendy, Little Jeffrey, and Nate

Grandma, you are my inspiration. A role model to follow. I think of you everyday. Rest in peace.

I didnt know her but if she was anything like her daughter she must have been quite a lady, may she rest in peace

I miss my Mom very much especially on special occasions. We had a lot of great times together. Someday I will see her again, for she is safe in Jesus' arm.

Linda

Thanks for sharing this. I've spent many long hours by my own mother's bedside, desperately pulling her out of death's clutches. I know she would have preferred to be with God in heaven. But she miraculously recovers. Although there are several types of happiness I'd like to give mom (great-grandchildren, for instance), there's nothing that can come close to the happiness and painlessness your mom has now. Knowing my mom will eventually have that makes facing her death a little easier. Remembering the memorials you've all made to your mother will comfort me when my mother's time comes. God bless you! And thanks, again for sharing your Mom and your nice family.

I was touched by your page, it gives me great comfort to know that the last moments one spends on this earth need not be painful. I am home caring for my dad at the moment, he is suffering from end stage cardiac failure, I pray that one day he can go to the same peace that your mum has. My thoughts are with you. God bless, Lisa

I didn't know Betty, but did know her brother and some relatives. Great tribute to your mother. I lost my mother when she was only 55. September 3 she'll be gone 30 years. I still think of her and remember what a wonderful mother she was. Our prayers are with you. Pat

The thought and the page is a wonderful way of remembering one so loved and missed. Thank you for the chance of geting to know something of her also. The knowledge of her in God's Kingdom has to be comforting.

We miss you Grandma!

Hi! I really do like you dedication page to your Mom. I have also lost a Wonderful Mother. I Miss her so much, so I know what your going threw. Your in my Heart .

Gina

I never knew your Mother, but I share your grief.

Judy, You did well. This is very nice. Sweet simple and very moving. Hello to Linda.

Diana

I have known Betty since my sister was married to her late brother, Roy Guessford. Betty was a good mother to her children and a good christian lady. She will be sadly missed.

I too, miss Grandma Straub. I miss and think of her every day. She was a wonderful Grandmother to me as well as my children even though she did not have the oppertunity to meet Kayleee Joy, we will show her photos and tell her how special she was to each and every one of us. I take great comfort in knowing that she is in Heaven watching down over us all and keeping us safe from harms way until it is our time to join her in Heaven. You are dearly missed Grandma and know that you are thought of and loved by many.

Love, and missed always, Tena, Michael, Chaz, Heather,& Kaylee Joy. May we all comfort one another when we meet again. I Love You Grandma!

Love always, Tena & Family

On Friday, Oct 3, 2008 - I did what I told my parents I would do 30 years ago. I retired after working 30 years for the US Army as a Civilian. My parents and also my husband told me that they would not be here to see that day and they were correct. My Mom has been goine almost 10 years and my husband 9 years and it will soon be 1 year since my Dad has gone to their heavenly home. I'm so thankful that my sisters and brother was at my Retirement Ceremony. I'm sure that my parents and husband spirit was there. It was a great day. I miss them very much. Next Saturday we will have a wonderful party in order to celebrate this special occassion. I'm thankful that God has given me the strength and health to reach this part of my life. Miss Mom, Dave, and Dad very much. Linda

I'm getting ready to retire in less than 3 months. I remember 30 years ago when I started, I told Mom that I would retire when I had 30 years in and then we could do more together. She told me that she would not be here when I retired and she was right. I am so thankful for all the fun time that we share while she was with us. I also told my husband about when I would I retire and he told me the same thing as my Mom. He went to Heaven 10 1/2 months after her. His birthday was 1 July and I missed him so much this week. Tomorrow is our anniversary. I miss them so much. Then I told Dad last year that it would not be long until I retire and we can go on trips together. My Dad and I traveled on a lot of bus trips. He loved to go places and enjoy me with him. Dad would take me with him to his AMVETS dinner meetings, we visited nursing homes and would take my dog, Rusty, with us. Rusty passed away 3 Aug 2007. We done a lot together but he also told me that he would not be here when I retire. I am so thankful that I was staying at his house when he passed away and was able to take care of him. Dad passed away 12 Nov 2007 @ 2353 (11:53 PM). I'm glad that my brother, sisters, and brother-in-law will be able to come to my retirement luncheon. I must close for now. Some day when I am done God's work here on earth, He will call me home and I will be reunited with my loves one who are already there. Linda
