When a mother births a child, that love will never die. Mother of mine, you gave me life
when all odds were against it. You were always the lighthouse when the sea began to scream.

Watching your life fade into the abyss took a lot out of me. Your soul was always full of good
intentions and pure light. You tried so hard to overcome this fight. The…

Dear Heavenly Friend,

I want to tell you how you inspired me in life. I know we did not know nor meet each other here on Earth. The first time I heard about you was on the news after your sudden passing. I learned that you were a young and rising Police Officer who was determined to protect and serve the community along to make society and the…

Dear Mom,
It’s me, your oldest son…Junior.
I should speak to you more through prayer, but, I haven’t, which is my fault.
It’s hard to fathom, but, it’s been 20 years since we last saw each other on Earth. The world has changed a lot (good and bad) since you passed away in 2001.

For a long time, I struggled to talk about you to people I knew when t…

To my older brother, my best friend;

I find myself rewatching our old h…

Hi Mom,

It’s been 22 years since we were chatting in the same room. But in my mind, it’s only yesterday that your frail body was exhausted. It’s just yesterday that you gave in to your final challenge with pancreatic cancer, your warrior body paralyzed in bed by tumors growing in your spine.

We’d spent the last 14 nights talking about both your co…

To the two who have left us to dance among the stars,

I’ve linked a piece of you around my neck in place of half my heart, but half my heart became the whole leaving me with a hollow chest and 2 pendants. I’ve lost the two most important people in my life in the matter of months leaving me in pieces and no one ever tells you that even when you com…

Dearest Grandpa,
The first words written in this letter have been sitting up deserted at the top of the page for a few days now. Each time I go to open my empty page with an intent to speak to you, I find myself pausing, staring at the vacant sheet, only to end up leaving it behind.

I wonder each time, if maybe I hadn’t started this letter b…
