    Each year I see I miss you and I hope you’re here with me .More and More I feel Alone without you and knowing no one will love me for me then and now the way you do . You deserve to be here with Bodhi i’m sorry I can’t take your place because of what’s between me and Dana. I’m not sure how to fix it even if I can without you here and I’m trying to keep your memory alive and sometime. I’m trying to keep you alive so until my time comes, please keep a candle lit for me, my heart still belongs to you. I will put roses in the chapel for you .Happy Valentines. Always and forever

    3 years ago   you   pass   and I was   told it will take time and   I’m still   missing you   and   guilty I couldn’t do anything   to help you. . Sure Doctor and Everyone said there was nothing I could’ve done   But they weren’t there   and seeing you lying there I was prying to god please help her   I’m   so   Sorry   I thought we grow old together and  
    take care of each other I miss you   and Don’t understand why God took you from me   and to take The Greatest NONNA 
    From Bodhi   Lord You had to See that   so Why

    Honey Happy Anniversary, 37 Years Ago
    We took our vows together Said, “Till death do us part”,But when God came and took your hand
    My whole world fell apart. No one knows the heartache I try so hard to hide, Only God knows how many times I’ve broken down and cried. When I look back upon our lifes One of the things that makes me glad, That you chose me to share with you, The precious years we had

    Love You Always And Forever

    Happy Birthday,Honey I wish you feel how much I miss you right now. I wish more than anything that we could be together again to celebrate your day. But I know we will again one day. It’s your birthday, but it doesn’t feel like it without you here. It doesn’t matter; I’m going to celebrate it like you are here because I know that’s what you would have wanted. I love and miss you so much.”I know you’re in Heaven and that your birthday there must be way better than any party I could have thrown for you here. And maybe I’m being selfish when I say that I wish you were still here anyway. Everyone said that this day would get easier every year that went by. But quite the opposite has happened.
