Condolence: Days pass into weeks, weeks pass into months and finally a few years have gone by without you. Your birthday is coming up soon but you're not here. I don't know what else to say other than I still grieve.

Condolence: Hard to believe I let a year slip by without saying anything. Jersey joined Ginger in November 30, 2023. Another birthday, another Christmas goes by. I miss that you were there for me and I was there for you. Christmas has never been the same, not the same joy as I felt when you were in my life.

Condolence: This past Monday mom, our little Ginger, who you so appropriately named passed away in the house. I am so glad you picked her out 14 years ago and she was the best joy anyone could ever hope to have. It is with my greatest wish she'll be joining you as she was so loved. I'll really miss her. My love goes out to you as always.

Condolence: Sue and I visited the grave site to look after things. We will need to go again soon but otherwise tulips magically appeared near the headstone. I miss celebrating your birthday where we all went out to eat and have a good time. I miss all the emails I shared with you even though I wasn't always good about replying. Thinking about you as always.

Condolence: Today I got news of another persons' mom I used to work with that recently passed away. I started thinking of you and once again I wept silently at my desk. It's now been 4 years since you've been gone and not a week goes by I still don't think of you. I miss you so much mom and I still feel the pain of losing you. I wish I could be more positive but there are some days it hurts so much.

Condolence: This spring the hellibores plants are doing well, one is like a bush. You would have been amazed at their progress. We had planted more of the things you love. Love you mom, Gregg

Condolence: It has been 3 years now since I've seen you last. And 3 years of missing you. In retrospect I guess that will never end. A lot of changes, positive changes have happened with respect to the house you lived in. You kept the place up well and Sue and I are making our best efforts to keep that premise alive. Squirrels keep eating our tulips, we keep planting them. I tried your little trick of cayenne pepper yesterday. Thanksgiving... Sue cooked her first turkey. I still miss yours. You were the hub of our family get-togethers. Many things I miss that your being in my life facilitated.

Condolence: Your birthday was yesterday mom. I was looking at the hellebores planted that you loved so much and they appear to be better than ever. These plants would have made you happy. They seem defiant of the weather and because of that Sue and I planted more of them. They remind me of you.

Condolence: Sue and I were thinking about you on Thanksgiving and noted too it was the same date you left us. We went to Burlington and I brought some tulip bulbs with me. We cleaned things up at the grave site. Sue planted all the bulbs. Maybe they will come up around your birthday in April. As usual I miss you mom.

Condolence: April 22 has passed, the four of us were thinking of your birthday. It was sad to say all too busy to celebrate it in some capacity but happy to say it didn't go by without remembering you. You live on in our hearts. You're sorely missed. ~ Gregg

Condolence: Yesterday, Sunday Oct. 14th, Sue and I planted some mums in Burlington remembering you. We were happy to see the Yews had survived. In a month or so that's been rainy, that day held the sunshine. Perhaps you were expecting us? A week hasn't gone by in the last year where you haven't been in our thoughts.

Condolence: I will start by saying I miss you mom. I missed celebrating your birthday this past April. I missed the usual spring duties with you that comes with the spring flowers. I missed seeing you on weekends, taking you out shopping. I missed your wonderful sense of humour. I missed your heart to heart talks. I missed all those little idiosyncracies of life that enriched my life through you. But most of all I missed your unconditional love. I think about you every day. Love you mom and miss you.

Condolence: My deepest condolences to you Gregg and your family.

Condolence: Lynn and Gregg. For some reason I looked on the funeral home website last night and saw that your mom passed away this week. Eighty eight years old. Wow! I had to reach out and offer my condolence to you and your family. Thinking of you this week. John

Condolence: I met Norma by way of my life long friend Mari Reynolds. I was so taken with her energy and enthusiasm for life. As gardeners we exchanged garden visits; I will think of her next spring when Im once again complaining about all the work and sore muscles but loving the renewal. There is a new star in the sky -brighter than all the rest. Carpe Diem Norma
