Jaxson speaks of you everyday and misses you more and more as each day passes. I knew grieving was going to be a battle... but I didn’t think the battle of it would be as hard as it is. I miss you so much. I find myself thinking of you, the memories we shared and those last few days.. as hard as they were, I’m thankful for being there with you. Just know that whenever I see a cardinal, butterfly or the mass amount of owls I pass by in a store... you are always on my mind and I know you are near. I love you and miss you tremendously each and every day ❤️

For today we have a blue sky, it symbolizes your presence on such a difficult day, the day that I never wanted to come, the day that reality will set in and I’m absolutely terrified for. It will all become so real and true. I know mom and I both feel like you’re just gone on vacation. It doesn’t seem real, I don’t want it to be real. Today we lay you to rest and give a final farewell. One thing I ask, please follow us through each day that passes, each tear that is shed, each smile that occurs for when we look back on the memories.

You will forever be my nana and I will forever be your girl.

I love you and until we meet again ❤️

Nana,

We spent the weekend in Port Elgin, I was hoping it would bring me even the slightest bit of peace. Felt it was fitting for this weeks circumstances. We went and had a visit with Papa, which was an emotional visit. I know he was there waiting for you.

It has been a week since you’ve been gone and it sill does not seem real. It hasn’t sunk in for me yet.

Jaxson talks about you all the time, wondering when he will get to see nana again. He sometimes asks me why I’m crying, is it because nanas gone to heaven? It breaks my heart to answer him with an answer I don’t want to give him. He sure misses you.

They say there are symbols of your loved ones being around you; such as what you would always say, the cardinal was Papa, for you it seems to be monarch butterflies, they are everywhere. I can only believe that it is you around. I miss you everyday and wish to see you again but until that day comes, i will try to stay strong.

I love you Nana

Sorry to hear of your loss Kathy and family

Dear Grandma,

Today is a day I never wanted us to experience, a day I didn’t want to come. Our world feels shattered and our hearts are broken, but know how much I love you and cherish every minute that I have had with you. Thank you for all you taught me and showed me in life. I will miss hearing Good Morning Sunshine, it is always the best part of my day.

Please hold me close in your heart and guide me in my life, I feel lost without you and nothing feels right. I am so grateful for your unconditional love. When I struggle please help me to understand. You are the best Grandma I could have ever wished for.

Please watch over Jaxson, he can’t fully understand, one thing he knows is he sure loves his Nana, squeeze him tight when he is confused and doesn’t understand why he can’t see and hug his Nana again and remind him of your love every night in his dreams. We won’t ever let him forget the memories he has with you. He loves you so much. His Nana you will forever be.

Please watch over Alex, she needs you so much right now, she is struggling which breaks my heart, put your arms around her and hold her so tight, for your beautiful girls heart is fragile without you.

Not a day will be normal without you, it doesn’t seem right. Although I want you here with us.......I am so glad you are not in pain anymore and that I was with you when God took you home. Please give Grandpa the biggest hug possible for us and Papa the same.

We will Miss you Forever,

We will Love you Forever,

My Grandma and Alex and Jaxsons Nana,

You will always be ♥️

I love you Grandma xoxo

Dear Nana,

This is the most difficult time for everyone including myself. I feel lost and broken that the most incredible woman that loved me and my son to no end is no longer physically with us. I did not want to see you go, but in my heart and Jaxsons heart, I know you will always be there watching over us and holding our hands as we walk through this crazy thing called life. I wish I could tell you time and time again how much I truly appreciate everything you have ever offered to me in life and how thankful I have always been for who you are, what you’ve done and the amount of love you have always given myself and Jaxson.

You will forever be in our hearts

I love you Nana,

Love Alex and Jaxson xoxo
