Hi David,
How are you? Do you celebrate holidays there? Wish you all the best and happy 2021!
Year 2020 was tough but your Dad and I made through it. Three of us are so apart during this holiday seasons. I am in China cz your grandma had a hip-replacement surgery. I came to China to take care of her do the best I can.
The other day I found your wallet in a drawer. This Fossil wallet looks so familiar to me. It was probably from one of the shopping trips you and I went together. When I opened your wallet, when I saw your Express store credit card, Metrocard, GameStop in Springfield, Chase Business Card of the branch manager where you did your intern during the last two years of your high school...... My tears emerged from eyes. I miss you, David!!!
Life is different without you around. This is the 3rd holiday seasons since you went to Haven. I miss the time when you got up in Christmas Day to open your gifts. I miss the the gifts from you on my bd, on Valentine's, on Mather's day, on Christmas, and your famous words "the thoughts are most important" Thank you David for bringing in many happy Momerie to my life! Take care and happy 2021! One day we are going to meet again.
Love,
Mom

Hi David,
Today is your 32nd birthday, Dad and I wish you the very best birthday in the heaven!
How are you doing there? I miss you very much, especially on those special days. Sometimes I just comfort myself by thinking that heaven is the best destination to be and we will meet again one day. Othertimes I feel sad and empty in facing the reality that you were gone. I remember clearly that day when your dad drove me to the hospital on October 31 before the dawn. The doctor came to check on me and was not expecting to delivery a baby on Halloween's. After many pushes, I was so exhausted. Suddenly I heard someone in the delivery room said it's a boy with elephant ears. Your dad told me the news that our baby has all the fingers and toes.
Since then, Halloween has a special meaning in our family. We enjoyed this holiday and celebrated your birthday year after year. Then suddenly things got changed. There were times when I was not sure if I could continue. But gradually I came out of the woods with the help from your dad, my doctor, our relatives and friends. I know that you always wish me to live happily.
Year 2020 is a very tough one. Covid-19 viruses have spreat the entire world and became a pandemic. So many families lost loved ones. Sometimes I thought that heaven is the best and the safest place where there is no deadly viruses, no diseases, none of the problems that the people on the earth have to face everyday...
I am in China now with your grandma who had a hip-replacement surgery. She asked me almost everyday how David is doing? Has he have a girlfriend? How often David came to visit you? Why hasn't David called me in such a long time? I didn't tell her the sad news. It will be too brutal for her to face the reality. But we all miss you very much!
Wish you a wonderful happy birthday from all of us on the earth!
Love,
Mom
