My beloved mam

 Hope you will be proud of me and dad as we have managed god knows how of getting through the first year.  Sometimes I feel guilty for not getting upset all of the time but I must remain strong for dad and Richard who I know you liked and he was very caring towards you.  Life will never be the same without you mam and I don't like to dwell too much which I feel, as I say, guilty about as it just cuts me to shreds the  bereavement.  You would have loved the tv at the moment as it is the world cup and your favourite Messi is playing for Argentina.  You were always saying you had seen him playing football and how brilliant he was.  Must stop typing as getting upset but I miss you and love you to the moon and back.

Your ever loving daughter, Susan.
