Ann, each day we miss you. Your conversation, your love and your caring. Just knowing that, always, there was someone there to talk to was such a blessing.
But you are at peace now with no more pain and no more struggle.
It is those of us you've left behind who feel the pain and the loss. Of course it will ease but, right now, the smallest of things will start the tears again.
Speaking with so many of your friends, family
and acquaintances, as well as looking through family photos, it is clear that you made a huge difference to so many people. I truly wish I had known you much sooner, but I am grateful for all the moments we've shared over the last 5 years.
Your passing still seems so surreal. I wish we could have been there at the end.
However, in death, as in life, you have made yourself known and I look forward to that continuing connection. I will treasure our last conversation. Looking back, I wonder if you had a sense of what was to happen only a few days afterwards. Did you know?
Like the birds, fly high, Mum. I know you'll be looking down on us always - encouraging us, guiding us, loving us.
God Bless you, Ann.
You were and ARE one in a million.
