"All Is Well Death is nothing at all, I have only slipped into the next room I am I and you are you Whatever we were to each other, that we are still. Call me by my old familiar name, Speak to me in the easy way which you always used Put no difference in your tone, Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household world that it always was, Let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant. It it the same as it ever was, there is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, Just around the corner. All is wellMammo you will be missed...Im sorry you went so fast but glad of the chance to have met you, got to know you, and spend time with you. I remember when you used to join in on Nicole and my fun, whether it was dancing around the living room...or just hanging around in her room. Be at peace mammo as you are not really gone you enterd in to the next part of your life as they say What the caterpillar perceives is the end, to the butterfly is just the beginning So spread your wings and fly"

I know your up there enjoying your time with laughter and smiles just like you loved to do here with us.. We love you mama xoxo"
