Today is the 11th anniversary of my Mom's death... I have many emotions this morning. I had a very restless night last night, her being on my mind and thinking about her last days.
I'm thankful she was a part of my life for 36 years, I feel very blessed.
I think of Barbara (Dave's Mom) for only having her Mom 16 years of her life on earth, before she passed away in a car accident. Tony, for only having his Mom 9 years of his life on earth, after her battle to breast cancer. I look to both of them for great inspiration!
Thank you, Barbara & Tony!
I love the memories I have of my Mom. I think of her always and love talking to our children about her. Spencer & Alexis don't remember her much. I promised Mom, I would make sure they would know what type of Grandmother and Mother she was. I think I've held up to the promise. You could ask Spencer and Alexis about her and they would be able to tell people about her life.
She taught me many great qualities... Two, always stand out in my mind. The love she had for the gospel and her true love for Christ. Thank you, for teaching me these two important principles at a very young age in my life... that the day (age 8... at my baptism) would come and I could feel what you felt. I hope I can carry this wonderful trait onto my children, as well.
I love you and miss you very much!

Paige, I know you miss your mother. Patrick misses her, too. And, I miss my Father! But I know that families can be together forever.
Please know that I am thinking of you today and think of you often. Give me a call sometime.
