Dearest Mom,
I find it hard to believe that this is the second year that I am writing to you
in Heaven. It seems as though it was just yesterday that I received that call from the nursing
home informing me that you were dying. I can still retrace all of my steps from that horrific
day. Although time may heal the grief somewhat, I will never ever forget my race to get to the
home and the hours afterward as the clock slowly ticked until you gave your last breath.
This year I will be at work on the day that you died. Will keeping busy help me
deal with the grief? Can I ever forget just what day it is? I know that deep within my heart
no matter how busy I am I will remember just what day it is...a day two years ago that would
forever change my life. The day that you left this earth and flew up to Heaven with the angels
leading the way.
I am writing you this letter on February 20, 2005...a day before your
anniversary. We are in the midst of a snowstorm here in Detroit and it is a terribly windy and
frigid day. I remember your telling me how you came into this world during a terrible blizzard
in March, and I can't help but think that this is some how some kind of sign. You are letting
me know that you are with me, as you have been, ever since you left me behind here.
Dearest mom, I long to be able to tell you just how I feel in this letter but
once again I seem to be at a loss for words. Can you feel the deep love that I still have for
you within my heart? Do you hear me talking to you so often during my days and nights? Do you
know just how very much I miss you and how I long to be reunited with you one day once
again?
I pray that you are at peace with God and the angels now and that you are no
longer afraid. I pray that you can speak once again with clarity and can laugh and have fun
once again. Most of all I pray that you are happy and safe high up above me, and I am grateful
knowing that no one or anything will ever scare or hurt you ever again.
Rest in peace with the angels, mom.
I love you and miss you with every breath in my body!
All of my love forever, Ellen
