Mother, since you have been gone your five daughters have missed you so much..When things happen in our family, like a birth of a grandchild or a graduation, I want to pick up the phone and call and tell you the good news, but after I pick up the phone, I realize you are not here anymore. There is such a void here on Earth without you. I am so glad you raised us to be Christians because I know one day we will all be together once again in Heaven. You were the best Mother that any kids could have and you sacrificed so much for all of us. You did without, so that we could have more.. I know it had to be hard on you when Daddy died at such an early age and having to raise children ages 3 months to 12 years old,all by yourself and you did such a great job with all of us and we Love you so much for making the sacrifices for all of us. I will always remember what you always told us when you would tuck us in at night to go to sleep, you would say, "Good Night, Sweet Dreams, I Love you..now I say that to my child..and the last words that you would say to any of us was, I Love You..Mother, until we meet again in Heaven, I will say, Good Night, Sweet Dreams, I Love You...

Love, Daughter Number 3, Deborah Oliver Forrester
