Mom, you were such a large part of who I am. I see little bits of you in everything I say and everything I do. You will definitely live on in me and through me. Mom, I miss you terribly. I wouldn't have traded the time I had with you for the anything in the world, but I just wish I had more. I love you so much. And Mom, I will try to make you proud of me for the rest of my life. Rest peacefully, my sweet mother. You have no pain now. I love you.

My Dear Friend,
Our friendship has spanned three decades. We have laughed together and cried many a tear. Although my heart is full of sadness for the loss of you, dear friend, you live on in Margaret and Courtney. They have the same strong traits, the ability to grab life by the tail and give it their all. I will miss you for the rest of my life.

Although I did not have the privilege of knowing Ms. Bellamy, I feel I must have known something of her through her daughter, Margaret. Margaret is one of my special Girl Scouts, grown now with an accomplished Girl Scout of her own. She still makes me laugh when I recall some of her antics as a girl and I have been lucky enough to make that re-connection with her as an adult. I know she will grieve for her mother but she will also carry on the very best of her.

I will miss you, my friend. I will miss that warm smile that you had for all your friends. I wish that the past few years had been kinder. Life is a stepping to what is greater and yet to come. I love you and we will see each other again.

I was so sorry to hear of Ms. Bellamy's passing. Though I did not know her personally, through her daughter Maggie, I felt that I did. Just seeing the light in her eyes when she spoke of her mother, helped me to see the deep love for her she holds in her heart.

Mom, you were my BEST FRIEND. I miss you terribly. I don't know how I am going to go on without you to cheer me on. I still need someone to be proud of me and someone to tell me when I mess up. You have left such an ache in my heart... I hope you are in a better place now, but I am sure not, I am in agony without you. I want you to know that you were a part of my world that can never be replaced. I love you so much more than you ever knew! I just wish I had more time to show you.
Margaret, 17 May 2004
I'm so sorry to hear of Sharon's passing. I have fond memories of her time here at David Weekley Homes, and was enriched by knowing her.
Please accept my sincere condolances.

Although I did not meet your Mum, Maggie... When I was down taking care of Bevan, I wished I had. It is very hard losing a best friend (Mother), but you have to go on, because remember, you too are a MOTHER. I am very sorry.

It's been 2 and a half weeks now...since you have been gone. My heart is shattered....I miss you so much. I long for just one more conversation or one more chance to tell you how much I love you. Mom, you are in my every thought. I have been going on about my life, but I feel it is all fake. I am not really functioning. Just pretending. I know it just takes time....that all wounds heal. I am just not sure I want this one to. I love you, mom.
Margaret, 20 May 2004
Three and a half weeks now....nothing has gotten easier. I miss you so much. I feel so alone now. I have picked up the phone to call you a thousand times...and then I realize that you're not there. I know that you are with me in my heart and that you have come to me in my dreams...but I wish I knew it was for real. I feel like I still need a mother so much, someone to hold me and say it is going to be OK...I love you, Mom....I will never forget you.
Margaret, 26 May 2004
I lit a candle in remembrance of you.
It softly flickered as your memory shined through.
As the wax trickled down I thought of days gone by.
Of how much I miss you and then I began to cry.
Margaret, 28 May 2004
I lit another candle and watched it slowly burn.
I can't believe you're gone, that it had to be your turn. As the wax gathered, so did my memories. Some were a little hazy and some seemed more like dreams.
Margaret, 28 May 2004
The wax turned hard and so did my heart. Realizing we will never be together, but forever apart. I blew out the candles, in the dark I reside. Forever to be lonely, in your memories I hide.....I love you, Mom.
Margaret, 28 May 2004
I knew you as Maggie's Mom... You were strong, Opinionated, Obstinate, and hard headed. BUT, You loved your family and wanted the best for Maggie and Michael!
You are missed...
Wanda L. Pinson, 2 June 2004
Mom, it has been almost 2 months now and I still can't believe you're gone. I keep thinking that you are just at the nursing home and that if I call you will answer, but then I realize that you aren't there. I would do anything to get you back, if only for a little while...I need you so much. I think about you all the time. I love you so much...
Margaret, 22 June 2004
Well, your marker has been placed and it looks beautiful. It is the most beatiful one in the area, we made sure of that. I wish you were here, Mom. I still think of you everyday. There are so many things I wish we could have done, if only we knew you were going to get sick so soon. I love you Mom.
Margaret, 19 July 2004
I went to bed crying last night....I miss you so much. There is so much I want to talk to you about, so much I want to share with you. I need a hug from you, Mom...I need to hear your voice. My heart aches for you...I love you so much. I cannot imagine living the rest of my day without you, my Mommy.

Margaret, 27 July 2004
Three months and one week. Has it really been that long? It seems like it is getting easier at times, then depression comes around the corner and knocks me down fast. Can I survive the rest of my life without you? I don't see how....but I know I have to. I love you, Mom. You are in my heart.
Margaret, 10 August 2004
Today is June 15th, 2006. You've been gone for over 2 years and I still think of you every day. I never thought that losing someone would be this hard. Although I have gotten over most of the anger I harbored following your death, I still feel like I was cheated. I feel my kids were cheated. I love you, mom...and you will forever be in my heart.
Margaret...2 years later., 15 June 2006
I can't believe it's been 3 years. The pain is still a fresh as it was then. I miss you and think about you everyday. The kids miss you too...I wish I could have just one more day....I love you.
