  13. I literally don’t know how to cope without my mom. She was my best friend. She had a heart of gold. I’m so jealous that my mom and my sister are in Heaven without me. I miss them both SO BAD! XOXXOO!!

  17. So….many memories working with Jan at Rytex . I miss you my friend.I hope there’s plenty of casinos in heaven cause I know that’s where your at.Love you…miss you

  19. Definitely want to light a candle for my mother. The best mother there ever was. She loved all of us kids. Burying one of her daughters was the hardest thing she’s ever done. Sure she suffered from cancer but she suffered over my sister’s death more than anything. It was hard for me to comfort her when I was grieving right with her. I felt her pain and she felt mine. I lost my two best friends within 5 months of each other, I have no idea how to move on with my life without them.
