Condolence: Mom these days are filled with deep sadness and an emptiness that will never be filled ever again. Losing you was truly the worst day of my life. I knew you as many things in my life. Mother, friend, confidant, caregiver, fighter, champion and the list goes on and on and no matter how many words I write here it can never touch the amount of special things you are to me and everyone else who knew you and your love.
The words I write here for mostly for the living. Friends and family and people that know us and want to share how we feel and share special moments of our time with you. Only you know how each of us feels through our prayers and how we speak to you alone in our minds.
For me my sadness grows very deep when I am on the road because we spent countless hours talking about anything and everything from food and relationships. We laughed and cried as I drove those thousands of miles and I looked forward to them EVERY time I drove and I still do.
You taught me many things in my life and I know I wasnt the best son and I've made my mistakes along the way and hurt people I love but you always taught me that there is always a chance to make my life better and move beyond my sins and faults and live a better life for myself and those I meet in my own journey.
My relationship with Jesus isn't very strong but ive never lost faith and I know one day as you wished I will learn to grow that relationship so that one day I can know the glory of the lord as you do now my dear mother.
You ruined my sandwiches as a boy. Digging your fingers in and leaving deep finger marks in the bread haha i hated that so much and i complained about it and you would give me a hard time about it. It was a sandwich made with love.. only a mom could do that to a perfect good sandwich haha but it was made with love.
You introduced me to a joy of food that we have shared since I was a small boy. I still remember the smell of the salt air and sounds of the waves and the games of the boardwalk in Seaside heights. You wanted your treat and took me with you to the fresh squeezed lemonade stand by the miniature golf place with that huge guy holding the golf club Next to it was the raw clam bar and you got me to eat raw clams for the first time and we shared a lemonade and it may seem silly to some reading it but it was something no one else would enjoy with you.. Something that bonded us at a young age and that love of food ive learned to pass on to my loved one and I try my best to share new foods with anyone I can. We also shared a love for mussels and even before you left us you called me your "mussel buddy". I love you so much and i miss you more than these words. I made promises to you and I will continue to keep them and be the best person that I can be. Your lessons and words have changed me for the better in my life and I will always and forever keep you close to my heart and give to others what you have given me. Thank you for being my mother and loving me and always believing in me even in my darkest days. May god bless and keep you at his side for all eternity until I can meet you again one day dear mother.

Condolence: Nanny, you always were my best friend. And always will be. I love you more then words could speak. I see your smile, I hear your laugh and all the memories come back. From going to work with you at the Nursing home, to Christmas Eve with you and pop. All the holidays, birthdays . The many garage sales I went to with you . I will never forgot all the advice you gave me , you walked me though this life with caring words. You taught me to trust and love in God. You took me to church and showed me to believe and trust in God. You helped me with my faith when I felt I was losing it. And it is because of you and Pop that I have a love for God and Jesus. You were my secret Keeper, my late night talks. Coming to visit you and sitting on the couch drinking Diet Coke, eating peanuts and m&ms just chatting and gossiping. Oh nanny how I will miss those late nights with you . I will miss your voice, smile, laugh. I will miss so much hearing you say “ Oh Sarah Jane” . I hear it in my mind and just smile. Nanny I am so blessed to have your name Jane as my middle name. I promise to carry that name just as you did, I promise to keep the name Jane strong and keep it in the family. Nanny I promise to keep loving God and trusting him . Thank you for being the most amazing grandma a girl could ask for. I miss you Nanny, and I love you so much ❤️

Condolence: I wish I knew the right thing to say but I’m at a loss. Nanny, I can’t believe this is real. I think you were one of those people I just thought would be here forever and the world seems so empty now without you. I know you would want me to pray and lean on Jesus to get through this and I promise you I am. I just wished I could have looked you in your eyes and told you how much I love you one more time. You were the best Nanny a girl could have ever asked for. Thank you for understanding my heart. Thank you for all of the memories, for including me in everything, and for loving me unconditionally. Your love was so pure and I hope I can be half the woman you are. I love you forever. 💔

Condolence: Words cannot express how I feel right now. I can't believe my best friend and my Mother-in-Love is no longer here. We had so many wonderful memories and so many good times together. She was my counselor, my confidant, and my shopping partner. We had so many things in common; we both worked in Nursing Homes so I could share stories with her that we could both relate to and we both love to shop, cook and decorate our homes. One of my best memories with Mom was when we were living in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and she would come visit us and show me all the great places she liked to shop and her favorite restaurants.

For many years we celebrated our birthdays, anniversaries and holidays together. Mom was an excellent cook, everyone couldn't wait to have her famous food like the homemade manicotti, her macaroni and cheese, and our favorite cheesecake! She loves to cook for her family and this was one way she shows love. I don't know how my life is going to be without her, I can only say that I have an empty place in my heart. I know she's in the arms of God and no longer suffering and that consoles me.

Before she passed, Mom was singing her favorite gospel songs in the hospital and she had that looks of peace and serenity in her face that I'll never forget. She said that one of her wishes was to one day sing to Jesus and I believe that's what she's doing right now! Mom’s favorite song was “I Can Only Imagine” which happens to be mine as well. I was blessed to be able to sing this song with her that night and this privilege I will treasure forever. Mom used to call me her “daughter-in-love” and I feel the same way about her. To my Mother-in-Love, your memories remain with me forever. I hope one day we will see each other again. I pray that the Good Lord will rest your soul and welcome you home. I Love you very much Mom, thank you for sharing your precious life with me!

All My Love,
Rosana

Condolence: Oh Momma...seeing this broke me again. I miss you so much it's the worst hurt ever!!! My heart is totally broken now, but at the same time, I rejoice for you, because I know that you are now with Jesus in Glory and you are fully restored!! 🙌🏻 I have comfort in knowing that you were a faithful Believer who knew what awaited you and I know that I will be with you there someday. I've never known my life without you, Momma. How do I do the rest of this life without you? You've been my rock, my teacher, my best friend, my confidant, my hero...you've always been there for me through everything. Oh the fun we had garage-saling and thrift-shopping, all the times at Kymers and years before, KOA and the Jersey Shore and our special trip to Amish Country that time...just you and me. Oh Momma, so many, many wonderful and amazing times and memories of you, of us, of all of us as a family. How do we do it without you now, our matriarch??
I don't question God as to why...His Will be done, for I know that right now, you are feeling NO PAIN and will never again know pain, or sorrow or sadness, for none of that exists in Glory. I can only imagine...like you too used to...and what YOU now know to be true...the Glory of Heaven and HIS love for you, His daughter.
I love you, my sweet, precious Momma. I KNOW I will see you and be with you again!! Thank you for loving me, Momma and I thank God for making you, my Momma...for I have surely been Blessed!!
Rest in Heavenly Peace, my Sweet Momma. I love you with all my heart and soul and I always will!! ❤🙌🏻😥😭
