Mom...I see you everywhere. Jonjon picked a wife that is so much like you. Often both he & I will recognize it.
I just reread my "Roast" you wanted us to give you for your birthday. It wasn´t much of roasting you, but sharing lots of funny moments we had with you. Never got to read it to you. I miss your laugh.
I love you. I miss you. I still need you.

I will miss you everyday and for years to come. You were a great friend, great listener, always willing to lend a hand. You were an angle sent down to touch each of our lives in a very special and unique way. You were a proud mother and grandmother. My prayers are with you and your family. Love always, Sandy.
