The memorial stone came...thanks YT'ers!
 

OM Gosh...it is beautiful! I am so touched and overwhelmed! It came today by UPS. When I answered the door, the guy said to be careful because it's heavy...it's 27 pounds! Wow! It is so perfect! I have a thing for rocks...paint them or decoupage them...and I have a lot of rock landscaping. This is going to look so beautiful out there. Maddie and I went outside and I walked around the yard wondering where I should put it. Mom's favorite garden here was the wildflower garden, but I don't think it would show well in there. I think I'd rather set it on rocks, than dirt, so when it rains, it won't get splattered with mud. Anyway, you can bet I will find the perfect place for it!

Thanks to each and every one of you...your thoughtfulness and generosity is something I will never forget. I will be reminded of your kindness each time I look at that stone! I love what you had on it..."You're Loved & Missed Every day." That is so true. Thank you for the beautiful memorial to my dear and precious Mom! Words just cannot express my gratitude! Here's a picture. It's inside right now...when I find the perfect outdoor spot, I'll post a picture of it again!

sent with love ....
 

Connie I am so glad you love it. What a wondeful memory of your beloved Mother.

It's beautiful, Connie. Use that stone as a constant reminder that the person you are today is because of the wonderful lady it represents.

That is so beautiful. You have wonderful friends.

Oh wow it's prettier than what they showed me :) thank you so much for posting that picture.

I hope it didn't make you cry too much but with your gorgeous gardens it will have a great home and I know you'll find just the right place for it. Big Hugs Connie and I hope it brightened your day even if your heart is still so sad.....Everyone did so great pitching in (thanks guys and Denise especially) ... it really is a wonderful memorial for your special mom..

Connie, it's beautiful. I'm sure you'll find just the right place in your gardens for it. What a wonderful tribute.

Connie, Thanks for sharing that picture of the stone. It is beautiful and a wonderful memorial to you mom :) It will look really nice where ever you choose to place it.

Awww... that looks so great. I knew you'd love it. It will look wonderful in your beautiful flower garden. Glad all of us could help you with this special stone. Villette found it and couldn't have been more perfect!!!!!!

:) :) Thank you Denise...:) I couldn't have done it without you...I was so nervous before ordering knowing someone here was shafted by an online memorial company.... I put these people thru the 3rd degree before spending our donation money lol - :D They were very professional & I'll have to write them a thank you because it's even better than I expected.

Connie - we love you girl....only a few more days to LIBBY !!! I'm counting the days with you !!

:p I'm so happy that it finally came! Good job Villette & Denise! It's a small tribute to a wonderful lady. Connie, I know how much you will miss her, but take comfort in all the precious memories of your sweet Mom. God bless you, Connie.

That is so beautiful. I hope you will smile with memories of your mom every time you see this in your yard.

What a nice gift, V you did a great job picking it out. I love the butterfly,it has always been my personal symbol of my Mom's presence.
You mentioned it was 27 pounds, is it a real stone.

Oh that is so beautiful. What a perfect choice for your flower garden.
You can go there and meditate when you feel the need and I am
sure it will bring you peace.
Great choice to those who picked the stone out. I have never seen
anything like that. Connie, I hope it brings you happiness when you
look at it.

It turn out beautiful...so glad you have it to put in your beautiful garden...:)
