It has been one year since Jesus called you home. The memories you left with us will live on in our hearts and minds and will last until we meet again. One year and we have a river of tears with diamonds that sparkle at the bottom, just like you. Mom, there is no life without you. The one bright light at the end of the tunnel is dim and may not shine bright again. Never a day goes by that we dont think about you. Your witty ways, your mischievous smile, and that twinkle in your eyes. Mom, we miss all the family gatherings, the laughter, all the joy you brought to the whole family. Mom, without you, nothing is the same. Just know this, you did not go alone. All of our hearts went with you. Your loving children: Larry, Paul, Maklo, Mary Alice, Marie and Marine. Heavenly Father, help us to understand the mystery of eternal life.
In Memory of Mary H. Andrade
