Happy 90th Birthday Dear Precious Mother …

August 16, 2012

Happy 90th Birthday Dear Precious Mother:

Memories of you just keep fluttering into my being ? sometimes triggering tears and other times giving me joy and laughter. No matter how I describe it, the pain of missing you will always be there. However, loving you for eternity will be easy due to your caring, devoted and affectionate ways shown me. You loved your children unconditionally and exemplified that love daily. You were simply the best Mother ever!

You once asked me if I would miss you and that you hope your children never forgot how much you loved them. You always knew I loved you and you also knew my heart would be broken one day. However, I miss you more than I could have conceivably imagined or put into words. Only a person’s heart can feel the pain once they lose a love one ? my heart is completely shattered. Mom, we were as close as a Mom and daughter could have ever been. We shared so much ? our long distance conversations were practically endless ? these memories I will cherish always. As my Mom, you knew exactly how to make me feel amazing and I will forever love and appreciate you.

Happy Birthday Mom in Heaven! Celebrate your day with Dad and Marvin. Continue to fly with the Angels and watch over your children here on Earth!

Your loving and caring daughter ?

Happy Birthday Mom Sarah:

I am lighting a candle on your ?Special 90th? Birthday.

I sure do miss all the times BJ would call you and I would say something out of the ordinary or funny to get you laughing. You had a terrific sense of humor. Your laughter was contagious! I thoroughly enjoyed my surprise visits while on business trips in Ohio. Especially the time when I found you working in your yard. I will never ever forget the look on your face ? it was priceless. I will always remember you as having an amazing caring, loving heart and soul ? one I will forever miss!

Happy Birthday again to you and I am confidant you are celebrating with kinfolks in Heaven. I will always keep you in my thoughts. God Bless you as well as my family in Heaven. I love you Mom Sarah!

Missing you –

Your favorite son-in-law in TEXAS!

Happy Birthday Grandma Sarah:

I am lighting a birthday candle for you today with love.

I will forevermore miss ?our? birthday chats ? you never once forgot to call me. I will continue to remember you as my loving/caring Grandma, and you will always hold a ?special place? filled with love within my heart.

Grandma, I see your smiling face daily. I have pictures of you and Grandpa that I will cherish for eternity. I know you are with GOD and Grandpa in Heaven and totally at peace, but that doesn’t keep my heart painless. I will forever love you from a distance.

Your Grandson ?

Happy Birthday Mom …

August 16, 2012

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM –

This would have been your 90th Birthday and I am lighting a candle for you.

Mom, if I could only change the years and have them to go in reverse, I would do it in a heartbeat. I want more than anything for you to be here with us, but I know that GOD had better plans for you. It is still hard for me to accept that you are gone. I think of you many times throughout each day and I can picture you everywhere. When I am driving I often look over in the passenger seat where you sit. It is like you are next to me and I sense your presence. I feel so at peace remembering just how sweet, loving and caring of a Mom you truly were to all of us.

As I have read, GOD doesn’t look at how much we “DO” while here on Earth, but with how much “LOVE” we do it, YOU sure did everything with LOVE!

Mom, today will be lonely for me. Nonetheless, I love you with all my heart and miss you beyond words. I will continue to remember you with love and always cherish our memories. Happy Birthday Mom in Heaven ? Celebrate Big with Dad and Marvin!

Love you always and forever ?

Please Don’t Feel Guilty …

July 10, 2012

 

Oh, please don’t feel guilty

It was just my time to go.

I see you are still feeling sad,

And the tears just seem to flow.

We all come to earth for our lifetime,

And for some it’s not many years

I don’t want you to keep crying

You are shedding so many tears.

I haven’t really left you

Even though it may seem so.

I have just gone to my heavenly home,

And I’m closer to you than you know.

Just believe that when you say my name,

I’m standing next to you,

I know you long to see me,

But there’s nothing I can do.

But I’ll still send you messages

And hope you understand,

That when your time comes to ?cross over,?

I’ll be there? to take your hand.

 

Mom, I will forever miss you… Your Daughter,

~BJ Byrd

Mom, I Miss You …

Mom:

For me these three months have been difficult ones without you. I find myself driving by your home just to feel closer to you. I know I have to accept God’s plan, but it definitely does not make it any easier on my heart.

As much as I miss you, no doubt, you are in a better place. You were truly an amazing Mom to me and I will always cherish your love.

I Love You Mom!

Your Son,

Mom:

It has been three months since you left me. In my heart it is like you are still here, but when I think about the reality ? these three months feel like an eternity. I miss your laughter, your smile and the love you displayed to me. Often I feel your presence like you are walking beside me.

You were the absolute best Mom a daughter could ever hope for. You left me with countless loving memories that I will cherish always. You are truly missed ?? Love you Mom!

Your daughter,
