My mother, Rose, was a warm, compassionate and kind woman who always went out of her way to help others – no matter what. If I think of anything, I think of mom. She was in everything I did. We shared everything. My mother was my best friend, my confidant, my advisor and my rock. I can’t imagine my life without her. She always told me growing up I could do whatever I dreamed of. She believed in me. Since I was a baby I always felt her unconditional love and how important I was to her. Through my life she has guided me and kept me safe. She supported my decisions and helped me, when I made the wrong ones. I always knew she would comfort me when I needed her. She was there when my babies were born, and it was through her example that I learned how to be a mom. What the true meaning of love is and how important family is. She gave me strength and shown me how to be compassionate to others. She loved my husband, Larry as if he was her own son. She supported us in our marriage and guided us in our decisions.
To my children, Ryan & Joshua, she was a second mom. She nurtured them from the time of their birth and watched them grow into the wonderful young men they are today. She is so proud of them. She always supported their interests and what they wanted to do in their lives. They cherished the time they spent at their grandparent’s house; it was truly special to both of them. On Fridays they would get off of the bus and she would be watching from the kitchen window. Saturday breakfasts spent at Tim Horton’s with nana and papa was a weekly tradition. Holidays were a magical time of year because of her and her traditions. Christmas to all the family was family, food and fun. She always made care packages to those away and needy children.
My mom has always been my support, hope, strength and comfort when times have been tough. I don’t know how I will cope without her – it leaves a massive hole in my life. But I will try to draw strength from the things she taught me and live by her example. I love you more than words mom. Love your baby girl, Rhonda.
