You always looked out for us when we were growing up. You sacrificed a lot to make sure we had what we needed growing up. I'm so glad I was able to visit you last month. I am glad you knew that I was there and I was able to tell you on person how I felt about you. I love you mom! You're in a better place now, with GOD, and with your family members in heaven. I know you'll be looking in on everyone, but we'll miss you every day until we're all together again. Love you mom!
