Merry Christmas my sweets! I hope it is the merriest for you. You are so miss by me and your kids. We all wish you were still here and not of the pain I have made my daughter feel would have happen. But again it not your fault. You wanted me to be happy and I believe you wouldn’t mind what was going on if you could see or know. I hope you can watch over me and help me through what I’m going through. And I hope you would agree with my choices, because all you wanted for me to be happy and not alone. So it has been ten years and I’m finally trying to do something about that. But I’m not going to lie I feel like I’m betraying you and our love, but you knew I loved you more than anything and am so proud of everything you gave me in our lives together. There will never be another person that could take your place or give me what you gave me. I will love you forever and you will always have my heart and soul. But you know how I felt when we met so I’m assuming you understand and wants what best for me. So with that I need you to watch over me and make sure it is not a hurtful experience for me and if it is you will be there when my life comes crashing down. I love you Clifford and always will. Please help me through this and help me make the best decision for me and your kids. Love you now and forever, but you can’t come back to me so I have to try and make myself happy. Hopefully this will do it for me. ????????

I miss you sweets, wish you were here, it has been so lonely these last few months. Really don't know what the difference is but I miss you so much. Would love for you to be here and talk me through all these feelings I am feeling. Tell everyone hi for me and tell them to keep us all in their prayers, it is a very rough year down here and seems to be getting worse. Love you and miss you

Omg, I really miss you. I really could use a hug right now. Everything is getting to me, please show me some kind of sign that Scott is up there with you. Miss him and my heart hurts so bad knowing what he must have been feeling his last couple weeks here on earth. Why didn’t I see the signs sweets. I was here he always let me know before hand when he needed something, why didn’t he let me know now or did he and I just missed it. I’m sorry, and I know you loved me and I know you would want me to realize that it wasn’t my fault, which I do know all that. I just wish I would have realized this time it was different with him and her. So I could have done something more. His last phone call to me and his boys, I should have known by all he was telling us. But I just figured he was just having a bad night. Poor kid had so many of those, and I know brought on by hisself. He was his worse enemy. I still have our boys and they don’t want to go anywhere else. Don’t even want to go to the services. Don’t really know how I am to handle that. Make them go or let them decide. This is a hard one, but maybe they are too young to have any regrets later on for not going. Don’t really know. Sorry just needed to talk to you. Feel better writing it down to you. His services are next Friday so I’ve heard, not by her telling me but through the grapevine. But it is all good, you always told me to let it and them all go. So I’m trying. Love you sweets so much and miss you even more. Until I’m in your arms again, save me a place please! Love you Cliffy!

Hello my sweets, been a wild one the last month, as I’m sure you know by now. I hope you do anyways, I hope you are watching over him, and reassuring him how much we loved him. I think he was having a hard time feeling the love his last few weeks here. I miss you and sorry I failed you, but I still am trying to take care of our grandbabies. I really did try with Scott when he was around. I would say I wish you were here but that would be mean and selfish since you would be here feeling the pain of losing a child. It is hard. Well I just wanted you to know how sorry I am for not being able to save him and that I will love you forever. Please forgive me. Love always!

Hello sweets, been a while, but your birthday is coming up and it is turning into your favorite season. Makes me miss you so much more than normal! Well still getting your babies every weekend, mom and dad don't or won't step us and do what they are suppose to, so they want to be with me when ever they can. Won't give me custody, so they can be with me all the time, so I guess I will just do what I can for them on the weekends and whenever I can have them. I know if you were here it would be so different for them, But God has his reasons I guess. Wish it wasn't this way. I had to break down and buy a vehicle, so back to making payments and paying insurance, been awhile since I had to do that, so hopefully I won't fail at it. Hopefully my hospital bills will keep getter smaller and they will be paid out before long, CANCER SUCKS! But I guess everybody knows that, especially me and you huh? But I don't know how much more time I have here with our babies, but it as been at least longer than you did when we found out about yours. I made it a year now, so keep watching out for me up there and try to convince him to keep it gone from me please. I love and miss you so much, at times I just can't believe it is true even after five years, it just seems like yesterday at times! But thought I would write to you instead of just talking today but I need to get back to work, love you and miss you and always will.

Hello sweets. Well thanksgiving will be here before you know it This is your favorite time of year. Deer season and fall. I love it too ! Well In case you didn’t know I was diagnosed with cancer. I had one breast removed and eleven lympnotes which five had cancer in them. So have a chemo treatment every other week and then one every week forv12 weeks and then radiation every day for 6 weeks. So I’m looking at 26 weeks of treatment. I’m so excited! NOT! I sure wish you were here so you could be strong for me and hold up when I’m really to fall. This will be hard, I am suppose to lose my hair in a couple weeks. That’s scary. But I will make it through this or I will see you sooner than I thought. But it is what it is. So if you still can prayer up there please put a few extra in for my Please!'well I love you and miss you every day, so take care and I will talk to you later. Love you so much.

Hello my love, Don't forget to wish Coty a Happy Birthday and Mom's was the 5th, did you remember? Well I am settle into my house and I still miss having you there. I lay there in bed and realize I will be like this until we meet again, kinda sad in a way but oh well, maybe that won't be too long from now. Your family still doesn't have anything to do with me and your kids, but like you always use to say, you ain't married to them Hermina, you are married to me and I'm what counts, and you sure do. It is still sad though, I kinda of miss them. Your grandbabies are getting so big and growing up way too fast. But they love you and we still talk about you every time we are together, they miss you. But thought I would stop by and let you know I still miss you and love you. Take care until we meet again!

This world is so changing, to the worst. I just need you here with me, to help me, cause everybody is too busy with their own lives to help me out any, Well I just wanted to touch base with you and let you know I am only doing this because I have to!

Hey spread'em, missing you alot lately, all the people are dying and I know what they are going through and I hate it for them. My dad and me were both sick we didn't even get to go to Adolph's rosary or funeral. It was really sad for my dad. I guess you know I sold our place, didn't want to but didn't like living there without you, just wasn't the same, But you told them to get me out of there, so you got what you wanted. Staying with Dad right now until I find something, I have a couple I want but getting them and wanting them are two different things. You I guess will be see another family member soon, they put my cousin Ray on hospice, and we both know how that turns out. so keep a watch over his family when you can, he is in between me and Leona age wise. Our daughter is happier than I have seen her, he makes her happy, I'm so glad. Cory needs a few prayers too so maybe you can ask God to watch over him and guide him in the right directions. Scott he is trying but I guess it just met for him to be happy for long, so watch him also, ask God to lean up a little on our whole family. LOL Well I guess I better act busy so I will still have a job tomorrow. I love you heart and soul til we meet again. Give my love to Mom, Coty Bob and Hunter and all the rest of our family up there with you <3<3 <3

Hey Baby, just thought I would let you know in case you don't I can't seem to quit having dreams or nightmares or what ever you want to call them about you! I don't ever forget about you but I at least didn't see you in my dreams as much as I have these last couple of weeks. I sure wish you were here! They say it is suppose to get easier, but I totally must have lost everything when I lost you, I 'm talking mind wise, I know I lost it all, but I think I went insane. I love and miss you so much and really have needed your help and advice these last couple of weeks, maybe that is why you are on my mind constantly, maybe you are trying to tell me something and I'm just too dense to know what it is. Please straighten me up if you can and take care of our babies, those oldest ones aren't living the greatest of life right now.. They are fixing to start back to school this week, which could be a good thing. Even Nash and Mads are going to start going to school, :( They will love it but they seem so little and growing up so fast. Well sweetness, I have to go for now, Love and miss you and always will!

Hello, my sweets! It has been a while since I wrote to you, but believe me that doesn't mean I don't miss and think of you every minute of the day! We have been so so busy at work and I haven't had a chance to write to you and I can't afford internet at our home. So I hope all is good in your world. It is so so down here, everybody seems to be coming to visit you, instead of living in this GREAT world, NOT! Now that you are getting more people up there, maybe you can put your little heads together and tell us who took my nephew's life. cause the people are not doing much at all. I miss you like crazy, and it is really lonely without you here. I'm home it feels like all the time by myself and I hate it. Well Kenji and Braden got hitched. I guess you know that and you, mom and Coty were watching from up there giving her blessings. Your son has been out of prison since November baby, and he is doing so good. He hasn't drunk a drop of beer since then. He got married and he is doing wonders with his boys. You would be so proud of him, I know I am. Well gotta go for now, but remember you are always with me and always will be! Love you Spread'ems!

Hello sweets, well it is fall again and I love this time of year but at the same time I hate it. I miss you so bad still. Will it ever get easier? I'm still waiting. The world is changing so much and I hate it. losing someone I love everytime I turn around. Cliff I really need you here, to watch after our grandkids and to help our baby girl deal with this crappy life she is being dealt. I am trying to help her and I don't know how. All she wants is you. Dad would know what to do she says. But she is right, you would, If you wouldn't you would be right there beside us letting us know we can deal with it. well Thanksgiving is fast approaching and that means our little family will be in and Scott will hopefully be back with us. I do have that to look forward to. Mads is finally making progress at walking, Thank God. She was beginning to worry me. She is so beautiful, you would be so proud. Well just thought I would let you know I am thinking about you and missing you still very much. Tell our family up there hi and that I love them TTFN

Hello my sweet husband, how are you? I guess you have met up with Coty already. Gosh, I'm a little selfish, but we really miss ya'll down here. You and Coty were too young to leave us, his two babies rely on him. It is so sad watching Branson, everytime the door would open he would run to it and holler for his daddy. It breaks our hearts, He is too little to understand that his daddy is gone and not because he wanted to be. You angels up there better be watching over all of us down here, cause we are losing someone every year. I can't handle my family getting little, and losing the people I love. But I finally have a reason to smile, Cory and my babies are moving back to Arkansas, isn't that awesome. I miss them so much. Well I know it has been a while, but don't ever forget how much I love you and miss you, cause that hasn't changed. It's just one thing after another down here. First you, then Mom, then dealing with dad and his cancer and now Coty. God please make it stop. Well gotta go for now, and I will try not to stay away as long this time. Give Mom, Hunter, Coty and yourself a big hug and kiss from me. Love you my Sweets!

Hello Sweets, sorry it has been a while, but believe me it isn't because I haven't wanted to or thought about you every single day. Its just with all that has been going on with my dad and other members of our family. But I hope my dad has beat this, they said 60% no sign of cancer, but there is always 40% that doesn't show up on a scan. So we are just praying for the best. Well I guess me and your daughter and grandbabies are headed to Florida to go see our other grandkids. I'm so excited but then again scared to death, hate thinking about a 19 hour trip to there. But if I want to see our babies I gotta to do it, cause God knows I don't have the money for a plane ticket. I misss you like crazy and now one of our family members, evidentally is giving up, Dollie, your dog. She is really sick, in fact I think she is dying and that is going to about do me in. I know how much you loved her and she has been so great to me since you have been gone. I know her bark and I know nobody can harm me without a fight from her. It makes me cry just to think about it. Well my family survived the first death anniversary of my mom. It was a tough one for us all. But we made it together no doubt. Well sweets I need to get back to work, just thought I would say hi and let you know I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU MORE EVERY DAY! I thought it was suppose to get easier, but it doesn't help to just hear our song play that was our last dance together at three o'clock in the morning before you left me. Love you so much!

Oh sweets, Its been awhile, but we are so busy at work, but don't think for a minute I haven't thought about you, every second of every day, Your daughter and me are missing you like crazy, Your son doesn't seem to want to straighten up much. And he is putting his kids thru stuff they don't need to be going thru. They spent the weekend with me last weekend and they didn't want to go home :( I love him Cliff but he won't listen to me any more than he would you. Its is always someone else fault. But I am just going to keep praying and hopefully God will let me in on what can be done for him. Your little granddaughter whom you never got to meet, will be celebrating her first birthday next month. Devon just finished celebrating his 9th and Nash turned 2 in January, They are all getting so big and growing entirely to fast. I talked to Squig, Kate and Teri the other day, they were celebrating Ridge's birthday at the park. Squig sure reminds me a lot of you. I could have squeezed him and never let go, lol. Well just thought I would talk to you a little while and let you know that it hasn't gotten any easier, I miss you as much now as I ever did. I think when God took you home he took my brain and heart with you. Cause I think I lost it. What keeps me going is always remembering what pain you were in and your not anymore. And the way your family is acting down here, it would kill you all over again. :( But I still at work so I got to let you go for now, Just always remember you were and always we be my world. Miss you like CRAZY!

Merry Christmas baby. Hope you have a great one. I love you and miss you so much. I hope Wendy Gail gave you hugs to you from me. I'm going to try and have a Merry Christmas but knowing that this could be my last with my dad and my first without my mom and without you again it's not going to be easy. So if you could let me lean on you and you could please just take care of me it would greatly appreciated. And if you could pull any strings up there for my dad I would live that too Just let them be able to remove that tumor or he will be leaving us and joining you and mom. And I'm not ready for that. Well I will let you go for now and get some sleep. I love you and miss you. Have a Merry Christmas in heaven again this year.

Which ever one it is I don't like it. I wish I could hear you when I need you to tell me what to do about some things. It is eentirely not the same without you here. I guess you know that Cory and Becca are taking my babies and moving to Florida around the end of this year. :( I don't know what I am going to do, I will never get to see him or my babies, they won't even know who I am. I feel like when I lost you , I'm losing everybody. First you then my mom and your family is going crazy, falling apart, and now Cory is moving farther away. Whats a girl to do?

Mike's dad is probably fixing to join you :( I mean everytime we turn around it is something down here. It is October, so it is not a great month anyways, Your favorite time of the year and your birthday. I bet they throw one hell of a birthday party in heaven for you huh? Leona I think can start moving into her house this weekend on your birthday.. She is so excited. Now if you could I would really appreciate you asking God not to take my daddy yet. We lost you and then mom and everything else is going wrong so please let him know that is just two many losses for my family. Yes you family is still fighting, makes me sick I'm wanting my family to live and they are letting theirs be broken apart, all over money which there isn't any, How stupid is that?

Hello sweets. Just got off the phone with our son. He just got back home from being at work for two weeks. He is excited to see his babies but they are asleep so now he has to wait. We did good baby. He is a good kid. He loves his family and he does his damnest to provide for them. He is so much like you it is unreal we did good on both of our babies. They are both awesome. In their own way. I don't know where I would be right now with our kids especially court being here with me. She has a lot of you in her too. Which is a good thing. I miss you so bad especially on the weekends sitting here all by myself. And like now getting off the phone with Cory and realizing how much he misses getting to talk to you. He always knew he could vent to you and you would always be on his side. I feel so sorry for your kids. They miss you so much. They really needed you here instead of me. I can't do them any good. Can't even take care of myself much less help them. Your little Scotty will start school again this year. I sure hope he goes and does good. Your death put a toll on that baby last year he just didn't quite understand. But you keep watch on our babies and take care of them cause I suck at it

I lie here in our bedroom,
Trying really hard not to be gloom.
But missing you is what I do best,
along with doing without sleep and a good night rest
I know it has been a year since we said goodbye
But it hasn't gotten easier, like they said it would, but I try
So I figure the ones who believe in that kind of act,
Haven't ever lost their one true love & realize they were never coming back.
I think of you every minute of the day,
And miss you at night where you use to lay.
There is a smile upon my face thinking about how you went to bed so early at night
And the fresh smell of coffee in the early morning light.
You were definately my everything,
Like my music to my words when I would try to sing.
We had are fights, like every body does
But I wouldn't trade a thing for the way it was
You were my heart and soul,
Cause that is how we rolled.
I miss all the talks we use to have or had
And you being beside when things were going bad.
You were right with you said that "things could be worse" fact,
Because the day you left me I found the truth in that.
There are so many things, we still should have been ableto have done,
But don't get me wrong, I'm very grateful for our lives very short run.
Sometimes I get caught up on the fact our grandbabies are growing up without you,
And will never know how great you were like I do.
They are so young, precious and absolutely great,
I wish God would have chosen to wait.
They could have all used a papa to teach them wrong from right,
And when at first you dont succeed you fight fight fight
So our lives have been carrying on without you in it
But believe me you are still with us, when we see fit
So until we meet again, my true love and best friend
I will cherish all our memories of where we have been.
I loved you to the moon and back
And you better believe that is definately a true fact

Hello sunshine, how you been since you knocked yourself out trying to get in my bedroom window. lol I still love watching the birds when it snows and then when you flew into the window I laughed so hard, not because you got hurt just that it made me so so happy that you tried to get in our bedroom. Still love me don't ya? I sure do you. Your kids do too. They all had a rough week last week, thinking and missing you. Cory is having a hard time dealing with the fact that Madison will be here on the 17th and you won't be here for your first and probably only granddaughter. I want to help my kids but I don't know how baby, you have to help me. I can't even help myself and I cannot stand to see them hurting and missing you so much. I feel like I have let them down. :( none of them have really anytime to grieve because they think they need to be strong for me. Watch over them sweets and help you whenever you can.
You were so right about certain members of your family, they are strange, but oh well another story. Your Mom seems to be enjoying having Tena and Jim there. They seem to be wanting whats best for your mom. And your mom doesn't like to admit it, but she is finding the truth about some of your family members too. Poor lady she don't need all the drama in her life. Well just wanted to let you know I am still putting around with out in person but always in my heart. Its still isn't any easier but I'm doing the best I can. I will be sure to give your grandkids a big hug and kiss from you. Love you my Life

Well your tombstone will be ready and up this coming Saturday. I can't wait! I think it is you. It nothing fancy just like you, simple and unique. lol I love you and miss you. I know that shocks you but you no me, never a dull moment. I can't believe the people that are dying down here. Everytime you turn around it is someone else, or they are fighting cancer. what is wrong with this world? Why can't we all just live forever? lol Can you imagine what we would look like, haha well just thought I would let you know about your tombstone and tell you I love and miss you STILL! Our grand daughter will be here next month, wish you were here to share her with me. Well until we chit chat again, keep saving my seat and remember how mush I love you!
Your one true love

Ok sweets, it has been six months today and I am worse now than I have been..I miss you so much, I need you here to help me live my life. I can't keep going like this. I think I have lost IT the day I lost you. I do not know who can help me with this, but it is slowly killing me. I cry all the time and I know you are better off, so why can't I get a grip. But I can't. There is so much I want to share with you and know your opinion about! I'm just fooling myself if I think I can keep going with out you! Please talk to God and have him help me before I go crazierthan I already am. I love and miss you so so much. I'm at work so I got to go for now, but I will be back. I need you so bad

Ok it is the beginning of a new year and so far isn't any better than the last. I still miss you like crazy and my mom keeps going down hill. She fell and sprained her ankle New Years Eve, so now after we get cast off of wrist, she now has a sprained ankle. WTH! I went and spent many hours with your mom and sister Tena the other night. I enjoyed it. I love talking about you and how great you were in all of our eyes. I got to go to Texas to be with our baby the weekend after Christmas, and I hated to leave. We are going to try and go back down there Friday for his birthday party but got to come up with the money. Didn't realize how hard it is to pay our bills with just my income. Dang do I miss you! But there still are a few good people left in this world, one of your friend that you use to work with sent me 100 dollars and dang was it at the right time. I need to find a night time job too. It has been raining but no snow yet, well enuff for me to like. Just thought I would send you a little note to let you know it still S...... down here without you. I love you and will chat with you later. All my love sweetness.

Hey there Mr Perfect, I have really missed you now that these stupid holidays are here. I used to love them, and now I just want them over, they are not any fun without you here to enjoy them with. The funeral home held a candle lighting ceremony the other night, it was really awesome. That was very sweet of them to do that, but personally I think more people should have showed up to let them know they were appreciated. Well I think we get to go see Cory for Christmas. I hope Scott and the boys get to go with us. I don't know what you have been trying to tell me lately, but I think about you every minute of the day. I bet your Christmas will be your best one ever and mine will be the worse. Everything is still going wrong and putting me to the test. I'm having a problems trying to keep up with our bills on my little lonely paycheck. But I'm trying and that's all I can do. I need to find a night time job too, but you know me it will have to be a sit down job and there are not very many around here. :( Well I gotta go for now, I love you and miss you more and more every day. Have a Merry Christmas Sweets and I will just try and get by down here. Love you!

OMG, I still can't believe you are out of my life forever, it must be the weather but dang I sure do miss you terribly. I cry all the time and I just can't get it together. You have to help me sweets, cause I'm getting super depressed and can't shake it. I miss our kids like crazy. I haven't seen them in awhile. Nobody needs me, we are need you. I just keep asking myself why you? Why not some other person that just causes trouble for everybody. Kenny is still whacked in the head. Mark brought me some deer meat, which was so sweet of him along with everything else he does for me. But me and Court eating it just made us miss you more. I think I have done went crazy :( Well I'm suppose to be working so I will chat with you later. Love you my angel

Hello sweetmeat, This is getting rough, without you here at this time of year makes it so much worse. I miss you like crazy. the leaves are changing colors and its getting colder outside, just all the things you love. I been crying my self to sleep at night more than usual.. I still don't understand why you? I know I'm not suppose to question God plans or reasoning but it is so strange, there are so many other people here on earth that no one would miss. Your daughter has been sick these last two days, she hasn't been able to work :( I think she is better today. I feel so alone, I miss you so much I know I keep saying that but its true. Things down here arent getting any better for my family. So if it is allowed in heaven could you put in a good word or two for all of us. I love you sweets, miss you like crazy. I really don't think these people that keep telling me it will get better, hasn't lost their best friend, soulmate, lover, husband, because its not getting better in fact it getting worse. Love you to the moon and back again and again. xoxoxoxo

Omg, sweets they are taking forever on your stuff, But I promised you I would fight to the end for you and I am. Just wished you were her to fight with me. It no fun when I have to do it by myself, My heat and air unit just continue to run in to trouble and money, I really could use you down here, aint real easy trying to make a living without you and wondering why I try, a lot of my reasons died with you. I miss you so much, to hold me when nothing is going right, to hear that it will be ok. It isn't the same But duh, I guess it never will be. It is just hard to deal with the fact that I will be living without you for the rest of my life. Ruthie came to be with you, so get together with her, cause she is a lot of fun. I love you sweets and miss you more and more each day, so for all those people that say it gets easier must not really know what they are talking about Kisses and Hugs Forever
Your Best Friend

OMG! I could watch this video of you all day long. I can cry and I can laugh, because you look so so happy on most of them. I love you and miss you so much. I think about you every second of the day. I want to run home and tell you how my day went and you are not there, breaks my heart all over again. Not that it started to heal anyways. I'm so sorry you had to suffer those four months after you were told you had cancer. I'm sure that was so hard on you dealing with the fact that you knew you dying and you were so strong. OMG how strong you were. But I cherish those last four months with all my heart, those were some of the best times. We knew we couldn't take life for granted anymore, so we show each other how much we loved each other. Sure we had our fights thru the years but everybody does. But oh baby my life with you was the greatest, even though at times I didn't think so. But there is always something that happens in your life to make you realize what you got or had. You were my world, hell you were my everything. You were my breath when I couldn't breathe, Our son coming in this weekend, I'm so glad. I miss them too so much. Oh in case I forgot thanks for your gift, it was a little soon for Cory and Becca and poor Nash, he didn't get to be the baby very long. But my son thinks that is a gift from you, so we will take that. I love you Spread'ems Always will. You were my one true love that I had in my life and I wouldn't trade it for nothing, Until we talk again, Love you and Miss you more and more everyday. Bye for now xoxoxoxo

I need your love so very badly. I muss you so much. Everything is going wrong since you left me it should have been me instead of you. You knew how to take care of everything and I don't. I cry for you all the time, I really can't believe you are gone. I can't handle my life without you, you were definitely my better half. And I'm so sorry I took our lives for granted and wanting to thank you for hanging on as long as you did, so we had that chance to let each other know how much we loved each other. While you are up there please have god take care of my mom and dad, swees you know I won't be able to handle losing my mom or dad this soon after I lost you I love them so much. But there are no words that could explain how much I miss and love you. Keep your eye on us all and help us get our lives back on track. Love you so much my sweets

Clifford was my cousin. He used to work with us out at the quarry and drove my favorite truck when I got another one, "Big Blue Buford" was what I used to call it. He was always so kind and worked WAY too hard. The last time I saw him, I jokingly "scolded" him for still working. I am still in shock that he's gone. He was a gentle soul and will be fondly remembered and greatly missed. My prayers and condolences are with you and your family at this trying time. I know he will always be with us in spirit. Love you, Clifford. Love, Cristi
