I will never be the same

I love and miss you everyday mom and dad. Thank you so much for everything you did, all the sacrifices and days you struggled to make sure we were good. I wish I had more time with you but God needed you more. I hope one day I will be okay and can look back at this experience and be grateful. Thank you for my amazing sisters and for the legacy you left for us. I hope to see you soon. Until that beautiful glorious day!

Love you mom and dad!

My grief is so strong, because of how well you lived. Mom celebrated every holiday and made sure we always knew we were loved. Dad made sure every need was met. I had amazing conversations with them. I’ll miss their love, their guidance, and their presence. I love you!
