My sweet Mother oh how I miss you. You were my mom, my best friend and your love and strength has guided me through everything in life, I pray you are at peace now. You were the kindest, gentlest woman I have ever known, Your love and kindness helped countless people. Now that I am gone, remember me with smiles and laughter. And if you need to cry, cry with your brother or sister who walks in grief beside you. And when you need me, put your arms around anyone and give to them what you need to give to me. There are so many who need so much. I want to leave you something -- something much better than words or sounds. Look for me in the people I've known or helped in some special way. Let me live in your heart as well as in your mind. You can love me most by letting your love reach out to our loved ones, by embracing them and living in their love. Love does not die, people do. So, when all that's left of me is love, give me away as best you can. ~ Author unknown
