Happy 1st Birthday In Heaven Momma
Frances G. Matthews, my grandmother, passed away February 3, 2012, at the age of 83. Today August 19, 2012 she would have turned 84. I didn’t realize how much not celebrating with her would hurt. I was hesitating but I decided to visit her gravesite….. It seemed harder than her actual burial. I know I will have more first without her, my first birthday without getting a card from her, my first Thanksgiving and Christmas visiting her. Her death has taught me is to appreciate the people God has placed in my life.
After I left the grave site I began to ride around Hollywood, SC and the surrounding area I made a few stops as I was riding.

I always believed that my grandmother and I had a very close, loving relationship. I always felt LOVED when I was in her presence. My grandmother was extremely independent, never complained about any problems she may have had. I learned a lot from her and will keep her spirit and love with me always. She alway reminded me when I was going through a problem " Dee , You have to TRUST GOD" Her words ring true in my heart today,because only GOD is helping me cope with this lost
I love you Momma

This is such a beautiful tribute! Her legacy will continue to live on in you and I know she is so proud of you. You are such a loving and devoted mother, daughter, friend and most of all to me a sister. I love you with all my heart and I thank you for all the things you have taught me, even when you didn’t know you were. I love you!!!
