Cindy and Jan, Mothers are very special and we know that you both will miss her dearly. We know because we still miss our moms. No one can or will ever replace her so she will always be in your hearts as "mom". She is now with God and will be waiting there for you. She is not far away so don't be afraid to talk to her as she is still mom and listening. That's what moms do best. In time you will realize how happy she is; no more pain or sickness, no more lonliness (she is with dad!), no more sadness or sorrow. You will still miss her but you won't be sad any more. She will always be there for you.
