I know grief comes in waves and there are no words that can ease the pain and heartache you’re feeling. Rest assured, you are not alone and when you look back on the precious memories of Aunt Gerry, find peace in knowing that your mother raised amazing kids. I will always cherish my memories of Aunt Gerry and Uncle Hubert in my heart, and it gives me a peace of mind knowing that they are back together.
A mother’s love is eternal. Hold on to that love and let it be your guiding light.
