I sent this email to a few people about the first year my mom was gone



As tomorrow gets closer and closer I sit and wonder how tomorrow will be.  Will we sit and cry for someone we no longer have?  Will we sit and cry over memories we made with her?  Will we laugh at our memories of her?  As hard as it is without my Mom I remember all the lessons she taught me in my short life with her.  I remember all the laughter we shared.  All the tears we shed together.  My tears pour down my cheeks as I write this now thinking about my Mom.  I think about how I think she would want us all to be tomorrow on her first anniversary in heaven.  She wouldn't want us to cry and be sad.  She would want us to cry tears of joy for she is in the best place anyone could ever ask for.  She was a fighter and I want everyone to remember how she fought and wouldnt give up.  Remember that everyday and fight.  Never give up.   My Mom touched many people in her life.  My brothers and I arent the only ones its hard on.  We lost our Mom, Grandma and Grandpa lost their daughter, Aunt Sue, Aunt Mimi, Uncle Chuck, Aunt Linda, and Aunt Jean all lost a sister.  We all lost someone who showed us how to be strong when cancer strikes.  So tomorrow when you feel the tears, try and remember the fun times we all had with her.  Remember her laugh.  Remember the good days with her and try not to be sad.  Remember she is here with us all the time.  Remember to dance on the beach with her. 
 
Love,
Patti


Im going to say it again....Lets all dance on the beach with her!
