Mom I still miss you so very much. You are always in my thoughts. There is so much I wish I could share with you, but I always feel you with me. I love you very much and look forward to the day we’re together again. Say hi to Ron and the grandparents for me *smile*. LOVE YOU!
I didnt have the good fortune to have met Mrs. Reith, but I’ve known her son Rich since our military duty together in the early 70’s, and if his integrity, kindness, generosity and love for his own family is in any way reflective upon his mother’s personality, then she mustve been one terrific lady. Rich’s likeable and honorable qualities have also been passed onto the next generation in his son Russ, whom my sons and I had the pleasure of knowing one summer when he was stationed near us. We were lucky enough to spend those weekends with him in our home and remember those days as some of our fondest. God bless Mrs. Reith and all her survivors.

Our prayers are with You.
So sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing & am very sorry for your loss. You all must have some wonderful memories of her. I hope these will sustain you & yours though such sad times.
Fondly,
Jackie
My deepest sympathy on the passing of your mother. Although she may not be here in body, her spirit will live on in you. For those of us who have lost our mothers, our fondest, funniest memories will take the place of the pain and sorry we have witnessed. Be brave and calm…….as everything in life, this too shall pass and your life will continue on with the hopes of being whatever or whomever your dear mother wished.
Paul – My sincere condolences on the loss of your Mother – It is so hard to let them to and they are impossible to replace.
My very best to you and Kevin.
Love
Barbara
May the Lord’s perpetual light shine upon Mae. You all are in my prayers today, and may His loving arms enfold you and your family,may you know she is in Heaven with the Angels. God Be with you as He always has been.
I still think about you everyday and wish you were here. I miss you more then I ever could have imagined. We realize now how you were the rock and foundation of our family. Say hello to Ron and the grandparents. I love you!
Hi there mom. I miss you every day. I miss playing cards, laughing, shopping, gabbing over a ‘cup of mud’. So many things happen in my life that I want to share with you, but can’t. 2 granddaughters, can you believe it! And another on the way! How I’d love to share that with you. Pls watch over Teagan for us until she has her operation, I know you will. Just had to tell you I love you Mom and miss you with all my heart and soul. Love to everyone there and come down and visit me sometime. Every time a butterfly crosses my path, I say ‘hi mom’ 🙂
The family has fallen apart since you left, but I know we all (with an exception or 2) think of you every day and miss you. LOVE YOU!!!!!
Still think of you and miss you everyday. I know you are always with me. Love you Mom.
The years pass and I miss you so
How I’ve survived I just don’t know
You were my anchor for so very long
The one who taught me right from wrong
Back to when you tucked me in at night
Left my door open and turned on the hall light
The little things that you used to do
Now fond memories of all we went through
As I grew older you were always around
Cheering me up when I was down
No problem I had was ever too small
You always took the time to hear them all
Now that you’re gone I feel so alone
And although I know you rest by a throne
I miss you so much its selfish I know
But that is how much I love you so
I love you and miss you so much mom, you’re always in my thoughts and my heart. (((HUG)))
Hi Mom I miss you! I have a favor to ask of you, and the rest of the family over there. Tomorrow morning, we have to have our beloved shepard Max put to sleep. Like you and I, he has cancer, and through all the tears, we know we can’t let him suffer any longer. Can you please be there for him with open arms on the other side, and give him a big hug from us and tell him how much we love him. He’ll know that we did this for him, but it so breaks our hearts. Let him walk at your side until we all meet again. His love and loyalty know no boundries. Tell Grandma and Ronald thanks for the magically appearing pictures on my refrigerator. I love knowing they are near us and watching over us. You can do that too you know…would be nice to know you were around too *smile*. I love and miss you all. Please greet max with all the love you have and hold him in your arms and welcome him home. He has a beautiful soul and deserves his time of peace and love. LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!
Hi Mom
Thinking about you today and just wanted to say hi. I know you’re at peace and happy and that makes my heart lighter. Tests coming back good so far on the cancer, and I know you are watching over me. I also know, when my time comes, you’ll be there to greet me. Hope that Max is hanging out with you guys, he was such a good dog! Give Ron and the grandparents a hug for me. Say hi to skip and his family for me too! Love and miss you so very much Mom!
Hi Mom,
Miss you so much. I know you are so happy
Hi Mom,
I know you are so happy to gave Hollie with you. I know all of you are laughing and having a great time. Give everyone a kiss for me!
12 Years Since you went to heaven and every Mother’s Day without you is still so hard. I know you and Hollie are having a wonderful time together in Heaven. Life seems so empty now that both of you are gone. I love you so much!!!!

Hello Mom. I promised Hollie on her death bed that I would always post to your page here at Gross. Life is so empty without my mom, 2 brothers, a sister and my mother. The family unit is gone and I am left here alone. Hollie and you told me to beware of a certain unblooded relative, and you were right. He has taken what little life I had left. It is very hard to go on, and hopefully I will be with all of you soon! I miss all of you every minute of every day! I will see you all soon and you are always in my heart!
Love you and miss you so much. You were the best Mom I could have ever asked for!!
