We buried my Grandmother today.  She was a great and wonderful woman; she did a lot of raising me and was always there for me no matter the circumstances.  I love you Mom-Mom.  You will be missed dearly. Rest Peacefully.

Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.

Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.

Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that is always was.
Let it be spoken without effort.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?

I am but waiting for you.
for an interval.
Somewhere. Very new.
Just around the corner.

All is well.

Nothing is past, nothing is lost. One brief moment
and all will be as it was before only better, infinitely happier and forever we will all be one together with Christ.

I am glad I saw my sister in August; we were able to talk and visit quite a bit.  Her daughters were absolutely amazing in their care and love and I thank God they were able to be there.

So sorry to hear. My heart and prayers go out to you. Love ya.

Now she will be eternally Blessed. Dying is a good thing when you believe in God. I am sure she will be missed by you.

Although You're Gone

Although you're gone, I'm not alone,
And never shall I be,
For the precious memories of the bond we shared 
Will never depart from me.

Our love surpassed the ups and downs
And helped us along the way,
And that same love will give me strength
To manage this loss each day.

On my mind and in my heart,
Mom, you shall forever be,
For just as much as I am a part of you
You will always be a part of me.

I love you Mom. Be at peace with the angels. Keep Daddy out of trouble up in Heaven. Hold my baby sister Amy tight in your arms. Until I see you again.

When you lose your mother early, like I did, the adult women in your life tend to take on significant roles. One of these very special ladies passed away a few days ago and her daughters had to bury her today. Gale Howell did everything in her power to make me feel like I was part of her family after my mother passed away. Today was especially hard for me as I said goodbye to this other mother.  Robin, Kathy, and Chris I hope you know what a dear and special woman your mother was to me.  Holding you all in my prayers.

Robin, Kathy, Christine, please accept our deepest sympathy. Your Mom was always kind and generous. I will always remember her laugh. God Bless you and yours.

Gale always had a great disposition despite all the pain & difficulties she initially had when I worked with her at our rehab facility.   As I got to know her,  her consistent kindness & compassion towards the staff & other patients  set her apart.  She was a pleasure to work with & we were all very fond of her & she will be missed !!!

So sorry for your loss. Nancy and I will keep your family in our prayers

So sorry for your loss,Chris. My prayers are with you and your family.

Sorry for your loss.  Praying for you!  Joe Kathy and Emily May

'May God keep you in the palm of His hand."

Jessica and Aedan

We love and miss you Mom - this has been a long struggle for you. We are glad you are resting now and have gone home.

Kathy & Pete

Robin, Kathy and Chris, I remember hanging out at your house on Miner and spending the night sometimes on the weekends. Your folks were awesome! The world is short one bright smile right now but Heaven has gained one. Love you all.

Pat Packard

I have very fond memories of Gale (and Pete). She was like a mom to me growing up and I am forever grateful for her love for me and my family. I will miss you Gale. Rest peacefully sweet soul.

May our Lord forever hold your Mom in the palm of his hand.  Until we meet again.

Katherine,

May your family be embraced with the same love, peace and comfort your sweet Momma has found. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. <3
