My heart aches for you as I feel you are retelling my own story. My sister and I always knew how wonderful our mom was. Like you, she was a wonderful wife to our dad 47 years and the greatest grandma to her grandchildren. What your mom gave you is something you will cherish for the years to come. She gave her family a wonderful legacy to continue.
Your kind words do help to ease my sadness. As you said, God will give me strength. I remember watching my own mother at her father’s funeral. She was so strong. When I told her that I would never be able to go on without her, she calmly said I would. She said God will give you the strength. We all know that a time will come when we must all say good-bye. Sadly, we will never be ready. One of the last things my mother said in her final days was that life goes so fast. She was right. The past year went by so fast. Tonight our family gathered together as we did on that awful day one year ago. As we prayed together, we all felt that Mom was with us. It was a way we could show her that her legacy lives on in all of us. Thank you all for letting me write down my thoughts. You are very special people.
