I miss you and Dad so much. Love you, Bebe
Mom,
Jarrod is with you & Dad now. Heart aches & as much as I wish you & Dad were here to comfort us, I know your hearts would be breaking also if you were. Where you're at there's no pain, no tears....only God's love & light. It must be so beautiful. I know you must've been there to help Jarrod find his way. All of you now together with Papaw, Mamaw....too many. Til I see you all again, know I love & miss you all. Bebe
Almost one year and a half and not a day goes by that I don't miss both you & Dad. I still remember the sounds of both your voices which brings me comfort. Wish you were here to give me all your words of wisdom, comfort and laughter but I know you are both together wrapped in all God's wonder. I love you, Bebe##imported-begin##Bebe##imported-end##
Mom,It's been almost five months since your passing and continue to miss you every day. I still catch myself thinking "oh, can't wait to tell Mom this" when something happens throughout my day and then I stop myself and remember I can't call you. I miss hearing all your funny words & sayings that were so uniquely you as well as your wonderful sense of humor. I listen to a CD on my way home from work most days that so reminds me of you..."My God he lives, My God he loves, My God is always there for me, the song that was played at your service. You always said "My God will take care of me" and as I listen to the song it reminds me of the many times you said that.I haven't been able to make your cornbread like you yet but am still trying. I told Linda the other day how you were helping me with it. She is struggling too. We've cried through many phone calls together lately, missing you so.I know you hear me when I talk to you but hope you don't mind if I find the need to jot down my feelings every once in awhile on your guestbook. Your many qualities live on in each of us in different ways. I see your love of family & traditions in Julie, same spunky eyes in Brooke, your wonderful sense of humor and love of bling in Erin. Michael has that little bravado you had that underneath hidden is a tender heart. Every once in awhile I'll sing your "Tyson loves to Dance" song and just the other day I asked Aiden "What happened to your hair?" All those funny memories! I'll continue to tell them about their Mamaw.One more thing I wanted to tell you - just the other day me and the girls went to your favorite chinese place. I noticed a petite little lady, silver hair, dressed to the nines in her jewelry and stylish capries, nails done and all and she so reminded me of you. Tears came to my eyes. Went I got back to the table and told the girls, Erin said she had seen her too as well as Julie and Brooke and they all said the same thing. Continue to miss you more than ever but I know God is taking care of you and you have a new body, free of pain and are dancing with Dad again. Give him a kiss for me. Love and miss you both...

Dear Teresa: Sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. I remember the times we had our summer outings out at the home place on Hwy 44. Also remember her helping me to choose items of wear for my mom when she worked in the store. I pray you and your family will be comforted by the pleasant memories of her. God Bless Each of you! Love!##imported-begin##Bernice Odums##imported-end##
