mymaw was the best, and she played ball better than my mom, and i miss her so much, it hurts inside alot. i wish she was still here, but since she is not, i am glad she is with God, cause he will take care of her and protect her. i know that she has no more pain or suffering, but i still miss her alot. I LOVE YOU MAW! THANKS FOR ALL YOU DID FOR ME!

Maw was a great person, a mom, grandma, even to those not of her blood, wife, and future great-grandma. I think she would want us to be happy right now. She won’t be in pain any longer; she is free. No more sickness, back pain, no more surgeries. But it’s ok to cry; I’ve done my share and then some. I’m sure there are others who have cried more than I have. It shows no weakness, but compassion.

In our tears let the wonderful memories of her flow with them. Times like when the electricity cuts off and she tells instead of cooking the hotdogs on the stove we can put them in the microwave.I told her she would never live that down. No one is ever really ready for these situations, no one could ever be fully prepared, but I think she is happy now.
We will always love and remember our Maw
