Happy Birthday Mom, today you would have turned 52. It doesn’t seem like it’s been 5.5 years since you abruptly left us. Daily we think about you and wish you were still among us. We miss your smile, we miss your company. We miss YOU!
Below is my eulogy which I read at my moms service. It was the first time I ever had to write a eulogy so I didn’t quite understand exactly what to say, nor was I prepared for it as she passed so quickly that the though of writing a eulogy for my mom was centuries away.
I’m not even really sure what to say, my moms quick passing has completely caught me off guard, not too mention, I’ve been fortunate enough to never have had to write one of these before today. I thought for sure my mom was going to beat the cancer but it turns out she didn’t even have a chance to fight it. But I believe my prayers were answered, I asked that God take care of her, make her better and he did. He took her with no pain, no sadness, nothing. She deserved the best, and she got it, she went out with a smile on her face and I don’t think I nor anyone else, would want her to go any other way. Mom, I know you’re listening and I just want you to know that I love you, miss you, & one day, we’ll all be together again!
So it’s a little corny, but it’s all I could come up with at the time. It was real and from a saddened heart. I just wanted to share that with you on my moms 52nd birthday.
