Mom,
If this is the only memory you get....let this be a special one since you meant so much to all of us. Let me begin by telling you how much I love you. The person and mother I have grown into is because of you. The love my kids have for both you and dad is endless. We always wanted to be with both of you and spend time with you. The love and laughs you brought us growing up is priceless. I can never thank you enough for being the mom you are. The memories we have will never be forgotten. Thank you mom and dad. I will love and miss you forever. Until we meet again....rest in peace.
July 11th will come.............
Your loving daughter, Kim

I am so sorry for your loss, Kim. Your mom was sweet and sassy! She made so many people smile and her love of animals, children, music and dancing was evident at Pomeroy Living. Shirley will be missed. My condolences to you and yours. :heart:
