Happy Birthday Mom

I can only imagine what a birthday in heaven with Dad, Pat, & so many relatives would be like. 

Today for us is filled with so many precious memories of tears & happiness of  holidays we all shared.  We still celebrate & instead of dwelling on the sad fact that you are no longer with us, we  cherish the times you were and remind each other how special you made every holiday.  Christmas was never Christmas without the house all decorated & carols playing, Easter was never Easter without our goodie-filled baskets & 4th of July was never 4th of July until we all dressed head to toe in red, white, and blue. Looking back at all the pictures of so many special moments reminds me of how special our family was.

You left a mark on this earth not only to your friends and family but so many people you met in passing that still ask us how our mother is & they are so sad when we told them you had passed.  So many of your friends wrote us letters on how you  made them feel so happy when they were going through so much. It makes me think how small this world is to have people you only met in passing come up to us & say, "I knew your mom!"  This is one of the best feeling I have ever experienced.  

I know you are there always watching over us, supporting us, & always making sure we are doing the right thing, even when we know were not.  Your letters come in handy to read & remember all you told me.  Sometimes I can hear you laugh & tell me everything is going to be okay & you know what mom?  You are right everything is.  

Missing you never gets easier.  I carry you always in my heart & when the little things get to me I try to remember what you said "It just doesn't matter, relax you can get to that later, it doesn't have to be done this minute."  But its harder when I don't see you smile & laugh when you say this.  I never understood till now how hard this is.  Even though I know I will see you again someday that doesn't ease the pain I feel, & doesn't stop the tears from falling or the small piece of my heart that I have left from hurting.

You took a piece of me with you when you left .  The moment you stopped breathing, I lost myself. I know I'm not the same person I used to be before you died. I am  trying my best to find myself again but it's hard to do this without you. I hope that I make you proud, I hope that you're always with us &  always watching over us.  So on this special day we celebrate you MOM.  Happy Birthday!!  Give Dad, Pat & all our friends & relatives a hug & kiss for me.

I will carry you always in my heart until I see you again.

Love,

Mom,
I found a picture of you, one that I had not seen in awhile. I held it gently in my hand,lost in the moment of your smile.
I found a card you gave me, written in your special way. I again, held it gently in my hands, lost in a moment of that day. 
Memories and sweet gifts allow me to be lost in a moment in each day...

Happy Birthday my sweet Mom..
Love as always..
Jules

I want to o go on one of our trips, but it's not any fun without you.  We traveled the world together, and I am grateful for every moment.   Thanks, Mom! I miss you.

I never truly learned what the words 
            "I MISS YOU" 
were until I reached for my Mom's hand & it wasn't there...
Up to the last moment of your life you were laughing and having so much fun with us. On our daily walks at the cove I would look up the hill & you would wave to me. Now I look up to the sky & can feel your light and I know that you're somewhere close to me.  Until I see you again Mom know I carry you with every breath I take. 
Love and miss YOU forever...

In French, you don.t say "I miss you." You say "tu me manques," which means "you are missing from me."
My wonderful Mother.I miss you so...

To my cousins, "how did it get so late so soon. It's night before it's afternoon. December is gone and now it's June. My goodness how the time has flew, how did it get so late so soon." I often remember coming to visit, and always asking who was who, because the head count had changed so much over the years. Living in my own home having 2 kids and many grandkids, I always wonder how aunt Alice stayed so sweet and so happy, but now i realize that was just how she was and she lived everyday to the fullest, loving every minure of it. Now the years have gone, and even though she may be gone too, her memory will live on!

Dear beautiful Gallo family. 
My thoughts are with you as you take time to honor your sweet mother this weekend.  
She was a huge part of my young life.  She and your father were kind loving people and their door was always open to me.  I was extremely fond of them.  I know you will all miss your mother so, but she's back with your father now and the love story continues.
All my love to all of you.

I'm very blessedl for having such a beautiful mother in law. She & Phil raised an amazing family & I am blessed to be apart of it!  Thank you for  the many memories...you will be greatly missed Mom ❤

Mom:
I love that you are free, but I miss you in our home everyday.
Love you, Ilene.

A Celebration of Life for Alice Gallo will be held this Sunday May 1st at Carriage Hill Club 5228 Everhard Rd NW Canton Ohio 44718 from 2p-4p. All are welcome.

So sad you are gone from the earth but so happy you are in heaven.
Miss you Mom
Lulu

It is with great affection and fond memories that we offer the entire Gallo Family our deepest sympathy at the passing of your beloved mother Alice.  Our parents had, and we as their children will always have a special place in our hearts for your parents Phil and Alice. Our parents, Vince and Adriana were honored to be godparents for Ceceli, Gabriel, Julie, and Patrick. We all shared many great times together. May your family memories continue brighten your life.

Kathy and family, my deepest sympathy to you. Haven't seen you in years, hope all is good!!  
Donald & Diane Greenman (Miklic)

My sincerest condolences to the entire family.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences to your great loss. She was such a sweet lady. Take comfort that she is where she belongs. In heaven.

Mom, I hope you are having fun traveling the world and beyond. I still have hundreds of letters you sent to me over the years. They mean so much to me and through them, your voice will never fade away. I love you Mom.

My mother....a ray of sunshine on the gloomiest day...she used to say: "Pack up your troubles and drop them at the door...enjoy life."  From the time I was a child and she would wake me up by pulling the drapes open and letting the sunshine in....to the last precious letter she wrote me...I was fortunate to have her for my mother. She loved to garden and could no longer grow her fav plant in California...Morning Glories....so I will grow them for her.
Naming my new place "Morning Glory Farm" in honor of my Dearest Mom.
I love you so much....but you know that...don't you?
Until we meet again,
Your Cece

Grandma, I will always remember the postcards and clippings of gorgeous  women you would send me trying to persuade me to 
moveout to California. And it worked I lived San Francisco for a time.. although I always wished I moved to San Diego to be closer to you. You always had the funniest stories to tell and knew how to touch people's hearts. I miss you grandma but I know you are reunited with grandpa watching over us all. 

Love you always,

-Stephen-

Grandma, I remember you most vividly clipping pictures and articles from the newspaper, while watching soaps. I remember people curling your delicate hair. I remember you at Lake Alma, walking with me through the Dollar Store in town and seeking treasures. You could find magic in anything. You live on, in all of these memories for me and those that your other children and grandchildren hold.

Nothing in this life ever prepares us for such heart ache. It just makes us stronger for what the world will give us next. The stars have another angel and mum will shine bright down upon us all..thinking of you all xxxx

Your love and generous spirit live on.  I love you, Mom and miss you in our home.

Alice you will be missed, I will remember how you always had an open mind and fresh perspective , The way you loved to travel and see new things, I will always remember the many trips we took together , memories we shared the way we laughed and stories we told ( hogzilla, bigfoot, ET )... we love you , give Phil and Pat a big hug , we will all be together soon ...

Our prayers and thoughts are with all of you during this time of sorrow. God bless you and your family.

Mom,
I will never forget the moment your heart stopped and mine kept beating. I'm so sorry I couldn't save you. At that exact moment, everything about my life changed, forever. 
I miss you Mom... See you in my dreams...

Mother

We had a wonderful mother, 
One who never really grew old; 
Her smile was made of sunshine, 
And her heart was solid gold; 
Her eyes were as bright as shining stars, 
And in her cheeks fair roses you see. 
We had a wonderful mother, 
And that' s the way it will always be. 
But take heed, because 
She's still keeping an eye on all of us, 
So let's make sure 
She will like what she sees.           Love You Always Mom
