    Mom, I miss you so much already. You were allways there as a huge part of my life. I dont know how to live without you there to share in my ups and downs. But, I must go on, and let you go, as hard as it will be. Your laughter, smile, and wonderfull spirit will allways remain with me. I was SO proud to have you as my mother. I know I will be surrounded by your love once again, when it is my time to join you in Heavan. Tell Nana hello for me, and I will see you all again someday.

    Your son;

    Sandy
