“ Michelle & Mike, my heart breaks for both of you. Your Mother was a very special and sweet lady. She was definitely an encourager.
I once heard it said ‘my mother taught me everything I needed to know, except how to live without her’. My Mother passed away in December of 2010 and I learn everyday how true that statement is. Not a day goes by that I don’t wish I could ask her something or tell her something.
My advice to each of you is to always remember how much Martha loved each of you. And, if you feel like crying go ahead and cry. Don’t try holding it back or being strong for each other because it doesn’t really help anybody. There are still days that I want to cry because I miss my Mother so much.
I know your Mom and Dad would tell each of you to take care of each other and yourselves and live your lives. They are both watching over you and they loved you both. ”
