    I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Anderson's passing. She was such a caring mom to all of us. She treated us all as her children in the many times I was with her children. Sending love your way.

    Chris and I first met while the new Denny's was being opened in Palm Coast. We hit it off and became fast friends. Our kids were friends. When I got married Chris stood right there beside me. What a party that was and she made me swear to not show some of the pictures. We also both went to Cracker Barrel when it opened. She talked of going to school to be a paralegal. I enrolled but to my disappointment she didn't follow through. Her mom was upset that we didn't do it together. Every Christmas night it was desert at Chris' house. One year she even talked my husband into bringing home one of their dogs. I was so mad but that dog (Rocky) turned out to be the best dog we ever owned. We were all heartbroken when he died. I also remember sleepless nights so we would be on the phone reading jokes out of Easy Rider magazines or Readers Digest. We would laugh so hard. Then there was the time that I would complain about the duplex down the street and the renters they kept getting. So what did Chris do? When it came up for sale she bought it! I hated it when the kids grew up and they moved because I only saw her occasionally. Our lives intertwined so much and it is a deep hole that is left with her passing. She touched ever member of our household forever. May she rest in peace and wrap her wings around her entire family.

    Time heals all... That's what they say! You have to take it day by day! You have to have courage, be strong and carry on..but without you how does one do that when each day seems so long? Sometimes, I smile... I know you're near however my heart aches because its not enough, you are not physically here. The days, weeks and months roll by since you died, I'm not the same without you by my side. In my heart you always remain, all our memories in my brain. So many times I want to call you, sit and talk about whats new.. share lifes challenges or vent my stress, you would always know whats best. I find myself trying to talk to you and hoping you still hear me when I need you to. I miss you more than words can explain, life just simply will never be the same. With every thought of you a tear rolls down my cheek, I feel so defeated so damn weak, just so cheated.. my eyes continue to leak. I feel lost, scared and alone. You were always with me since before I was born and even when I was grown. Youre my Mother and I will never have another. No one in this life could ever replace you and I hope you know just how much I love you and miss you.
