Sophia Baluch - Online Memorial Website

Today is 6 months since young Mark left us with such sadness.  Carol, Mark and Renee lost such a joy and life is so difficult for them to carry on.

Boy Mom, we sure  miss you. We sure need you during all these hard times, even if it is just a phone call. You do not know what you miss till it is gone. Alicia and I would give everything just to have you with us. Take care of Mark and Dad.  It is so hard, Mom, just so hard. I love and miss you, Mom. love, Carol

Today is a kind of day that I wish you were here.  I would have called you to just talk about stuff.  Funny how we take most things for granted.  Like, you being here and I pick up the phone and we have a real good sisterly talk.  Those were the days.

It's been a very cold and snowy winter so far and it's keeping me from getting out and about.  I think even you would have stayed put. 

Your family still misses you so much.  It would have been great for you to be here to comfort them but than who would be comforting you in this sorrow?

Look down upon us and wish us the peace that you have as  I know that you are with our Lord and at peace.

Well, dear sister, 'til I write again stay close to your loved ones.

Mom, the tears for our Mark have been alittle easier, even though they are not gone. We have so much on our plate, doctors, lawyers, medical papers court stuff taxes. It is sometimes to much, also with just getting over that you are not here. We are fighting for Mark and he should not be gone from our lives. It will not bring him back, but we can finally get to really understand why he is gone. We miss him so, so much. We miss you too, Mom. I would never want you to go through this pain we have everyday. We can't take it and I would never wish that for you. I love you Mom, and give a kiss to our Mark too. Carol xxxxx0000

Mom = Realizing every day the torture that Carol, Mark and Renee are going thru  and it just breaks my heart.  We know now and it makes it a little easier that you left us first because you would never have been able to stand the pain.  Doesn't mean it's any easier or less lonely, but you weren't strong enough to endure the pain.  You are in my heart every minute and I even still was dialing your number the other day hoping you might answer.  I heard the song "I can only Imagine" the other day and I thought to myself - I hope Dad was waiting for you and you and Dad were there to greet Mark.  My only strength sometimes is knowing that you all will be there to greet me someday and we will finally be all together again.  Please ask God to hold Mark, Carol and Renee's hands and give them strength.  That is all I ask!!!  But I sure do wish we had 1 more year so you could be here to see Shannon graduate and Erica get married.  I know you will be here with us, but it just won't be the same without you.  Love you and MIss You SO MUCH MOM XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
