To Miss Barbara from Mom


This tribute was missed at Barbara's service


When you were born you entered this world under 5 pounds. Doctors were not sure if you would make it or not. With determination you showed them I will make it and even pick up a few extra pounds along the way.
There is not enough time to listen to all the fun times we shared so we will keep those times to ourselfs.
Like all moms and daughters we had our days but we always said sorry and agreed to let the day go and start a new tomorrow.
There were 4 warning signs to let us know you were getting another infection, the 4th sign was the big bear hug that you gave me and to staff. I know now that the last bear hug you gave me at Stanwood you were telling me in your own way, Mom don't make me go through this again in 2 or 3 weeks. When a family member passes Barbara always says"move over" as if they are all sitting at a table and we need to make room She can list every family member in the order they passed away, When I come to join you, make sure you all move over and make room for me. Let's hope they have FaceTime up in heaven so you can say FaceTime MOM There will be NO more rules as to how many times a day you can call mom. My dear Barbara I will always love you and keep you in a special place in my heart Hugs and kisses til we meet again Love MoM.
