    Suggestions for Remembering your Lost Loved One

    Create a Photo Memory Scrapbook of your Lost Loved One.

    Create or commission a drawing, painting or portrait of your Lost Loved One. Pick a photo of your Lost Loved One with a beautiful smile, that way the portrait will always bring back good memories each time you view it. If you have young children you could have them each draw of picture of the Lost Loved One and frame them together.

    Dear Pretty Auntie Joanie,

    When I was a teenager I didn’t want to call you Pretty Auntie Joanie, I thought it was silly and I had out grown it, but you always made me do it. Now it seems only natural to call you my Pretty Auntie Joanie because that is what you always were and will always be to me.
    Your love for us was always so strong despite the miles between us, and we love you so much too. We will miss you but are happy that you’ll be with Uncle Johnny and Auntie Gloria.
    You made us laugh with your birthday songs over the phone, and dancing with Chris last summer, especially when he dipped you. We know that you will always be with us and will remember the love and happiness you always gave us.
    Loads of Love,
    Laura and Christine

    Terry,Denise,Chris,Kim,Nick,Cameron and the rest of your lovely family. Regret that I never had the chance to know Joan better, but do know one thing, she took a lot of laughter with her. She was a singular presence and loved the world. After meeting the rest of your family at your home, I know she must have been a wonderful person. You all are a lovely family and I am sure the support you demonstrate to one another will help you through this trying time.

    Dear Mamere
    I know it took me a long time to do this but I never know what to say. I LOVE YOU SOOOOO MUCH and wish you were here right now with me. I feel so guilty for have been the grandchild to have the most time with you, and I’ll probably feel guilty for a while. I love everything you ever did for me, and everything you ever gave me you wrote mesages for me and they make happy and sad at the same time because they make me believe you are not gone. I know you are in a better place Mamere, but I wish you were here to hug and kiss me. I love you Mamere and I know I’ll see you sometime in the future.

    Love forever Tiffany
