Eating with mom at Her favorite Restaurant El Vequero 

With a heart of gratitude for the many years I lived with and near my mama I can say I learned so much from her.  Put a spoon in the bottom of a boiling soup and it will never boil over.
Or pecan in Cabbage it will never smell up the house, To certainly how important it is to care for yourself. She really was a medical mystery. I will miss her present but carry her dear in heart forever. Crazy 8 will never be the same. 
I love you mama and I told you often. I will pray for you for years for your soul  and honor your memory in pray. 

Hey Cindy,  I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.  I know how much you loved and cared for your mother. I pray the peace of God that surpasses all understanding be with you and the family along with his comfort.   I pray the memories of times spent together will bring you additional comfort and joy during this time.

Grandma, there is so much to say. You were the best grandma ever, you were my savior and you always called me the love of your life. I always remember being up early with you in the morning drinking coffee, sleeping in your nightgowns with you and being your bed partner, and having our secret drawer where I could tell you anything and you promised to keep it from my mom. I remember when you would take me to Burger King after school, eating cottage cheese and pineapples with you late at night watching 
TV, or me giving you sour candies to watch your reaction. I remember going grocery shopping with you at Winn Dixie and you explaining to me how to pick out meats because you used to be a butcher and how to pick fruits and veggies and we would always look at the lobster tank and I would call them loblers. There are so many good memories I have with you and I love you so much and I know you know that and I know you love me. I'm going to miss you forever and I can't grasp that you are physically gone forever.
