Mum.......Sweet mother of mine, first you gave me life and endured many sleepless nights...for that I thank you. You loved me from the minute I took my first breath; you cared for me, nurtured me, guided me on the pathway of life and made many sacrifices for me. I thank you Mum for helping me to rise after I stumble; to lean on your shoulder so gentle and kind and offer support and to always be myself and to never forget my roots and where I came from. For everything you did for me even when I didn't deserve it, thank you! Dearest Mother of Mine....I miss you so, so much and my heart is broken and the pain of losing you seems unbearable. So many memories of you and I are etched in my heart forever and it reminds me of how beautiful life's fleeting moments can be. It was a honor and a privilege to take care of you these last few years when your health began to fail and the distance I needed to travel to see you each weekend did not matter....I would travel a million miles every weekend just to see and be with you if I had to! Sometimes you never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory. I still see your beautiful face and beautiful smile and I miss your laughter and the sound of your voice. I miss my weekly Friday night drive out to Lloydminster and now my vehicle sits idle and restless in the garage aching to go out on Yellowhead Highway 16 for a road trip. Rest now dear mother of mine in eternal peace. Until we meet again, please watch over me and my family and keep us safe as only a mother can. I know when our earthly time here is done and life's works have been completed, that you will greet us and lead us by the hand to our Heavenly Father and our eternal resting place when our time draws near. Miss you now, forever and ever and a day......thank you for the memories, thank you for your love.........until we meet again............sweet Mother of Mine
