Hi mom. Hard to believe it's been 5yrs today. Still tell you hi talk to you everyday, but you know that. The month of October is still a rough month for us. We just hold on and wait for it to pass. The boys are going through a rough time. If you could check in on them and give them your guidance, that would be great. The girls are all doing great. So happy of all them. Wish you were

The boys are going through a rough time. If you could check in on them and give them your guidance, that would be great. The girls are all doing great. So happy of all them. Wish you were here to share their happiness. As for me, I retired. Wanted to enjoy life. It's an adjustment but I'll get there. I love and miss you so much. Mort

Wow mom, 5yrs tomorrow (21st) you left this world. Still tell you good morning everyday, but I guess you know that. October is still a very rough month for this family. So much going on with the men. Any guidance you can send their way is needed. The girls are doing great. As for me, I retired. Wanted to enjoy life like you did. Still a learning curve, but I'll figure it out. I love you and miss you, Mom

Hello Mom. This year, though my raw sadness is still there, I put those feelings aside and decided to celebrate your life. I honored you the way you would want me to. I felt we had a nice talk when I came by Camp Butler. I also, went by to see Carol and left flowers. Love and miss you, Mom.
Love forever

Hi mom, just checking in with you in case your online playing poker. Appears, I took over the responsibility you had in going to visit our family who have passed on. I actually enjoy and feel at peace going to talk and take care of everyone's resting place. Love you and still need your guidance. Mort.

Happy February 11th Birthday, Mom. You and I both know that time doesn't really make it easier, just a little more tolerable. Miss you more and more, especially when things get tough. Sure could use your wisdom now. Love you always. Mort

Mom, I'm a little stronger now so I can write and tell you how much I love and miss you every day. It's those constant little day to day things in life that have been the hardest. No matter how hard this is, I know my tears will dry and memories of you will be of pure joy and laughter. You knew I loved you and I pray you know that I have always admired you and how you lead
Mom, I'm a little stronger now so I can write and tell you how much I love and miss you every day. It's those constant little day to day things in life that have been the hardest. No matter how hard this is, I know my tears will dry and memories of you will be of pure joy and laughter. You knew I loved you and I pray you know that I have always admired you and how you lead life your way. I'm a very lucky girl to have had an independent yet unselfish woman to call my mom and mentor. Always in my heart.
Mort
