Sunday will mark three months since you departed this life Mommy, and as expected it hasnt gotten any easier. It hurts in so many ways and different levels, but most of all to not have the person who used to always protect and look out for us, do what you did so well. We're on our own now and its so hard. We're young adults and thats obviously a part of growing up, but its so hard being forced to get on our feet right now and cope, with little help....Its hard for people to understand exacty what we're going through, and the bills, and grief, and so on.... Sometimes I wanna give up and I wish I could wake up from this nightmare, but I know that the strength that you instilled in both me and Rasheed, and all the years of happiness, love, and affection will sustain us.....I Miss U More everyday, and I knew this was coming, I just didnt realize how soon....Less than a month after my college graduation.....5 days after your birthday......3 days after my birthday....1 day before Father's Day....It hurts, but I'll get through with your protection... Love You, "Baby"

She always learned to watch for us Anxious if we were late In winter by the window In summer by the gate And though we mocked her tenderly Who has such foolish care The long way home would seem more safe Because she waited there Her thoughts were all so full of us-- She never could forget And so I think that where she is She must be watching yet Waiting till we come to her, Anxious if we are late-- Watching from heaven's window, Leaning from heaven's gate

Lucy Harrison Reece in all her glory...Our mother who taught us everything we know, and taught us to learn the things that she could not teach us...Our memories, love and your spirit transcends all space and time. Our bond goes beyond all forms of comprehension in known to man--but we understand it without question or thought...Thank You for everything. &q

Lonely Is The Home Without You Lonely is the home without you Life to us is not the same All the world would be like HEAVEN If we could have you back again What she suffered she told but few She did not deserve what she went through Tired and weary she made no fuss But tried so hard to stay with us Two tired eyes are sleeping Two willing hands are still The one who worked so hard for us Is resting at GOD’s Will Our lips cannot speak how we loved her Our hearts cannot tell what to say But GOD only knows how we miss her In our home that is lonely today Our family chain is broken Nothing seems the same But as GOD calls us one by one The links shall join again
