Andrea Richardson

Andrea was one of those people who always kept a smile on her face no matter what the case may be. She always looked at the bright side of every situation. Andrea was my drill team director on the Hawk for two years. In those short two years she made a huge impact on my life. Andrea was just one those people who made friends with everyone. She was always so kind and thought of everybody. She fought her cancer for many years. She fought it with everything she had. She was a strong fighter. She left behind her gorgeous son Josh, beautiful daughter-in-law Krystal in which she was unable to be at the wedding. However we do know that her spirit was there, her grandson Andy whom she never got to meet, husband, sister, and many friends. Andrea was a wonderful mother and friend. I kept saying that I would take my son to see her but things kept coming up and then it was too late. She will be missed and loved by everyone.

Mom you are so, so strong,

i don't understand what went wrong?

Your cancer is back again for the seccond time,

I wish all of this would only cost us a dime.

You are the nicest person i know how could this happen to you?

After all the hard times you manage to keep a smile not a frown

I want you to know that no matter how hard it gets I am here for you always..

When I laid there beside you,
Could you feel me there?
My arms were wrapped around you,
And I was stroking your hair.

I was talking about all the good times,
For me they were every single day,
I wanted you to feel love and comfort,
And happy in some way.

I watched your every breath,
And prayed that each one wasn't your last.
The time we got to share together,
Went by too quick... Too fast.

I wanted you to wake up,
Please mom... open your eyes.
Tell me this is a nightmare,
And not our good-byes.

As your last breath grew closer,
We laid there peacefully together.
My heart continually breaking,
Because I wanted you forever.

Then there it was,
Your final breath of air.
I didn't want to believe it,
This is so cruel and unfair.

I held your beautiful face,
And prayed you'd breath again.
I wasn't ready for you to go,
I couldn't admit that this was the end.

But then I realized that you were now in peace,
And not suffering anymore.
You were beginning the life of an Angel,
And your body would no longer be sore.

I held you close and squeezed you tight,
And tried to say good bye.
I've lost my mom and my number one best friend,
All my heart could do was cry.

I slowly got up,
I wanted so much to stay.
I leaned over and gave you one more kiss,
It was so hard to walk away.

Mom you are my entire world,
And I miss you so very much.
I wish I could feel your lovable cuddle,
And your soft and gentle touch.

But for now I have to wait,
Until we meet again.
Always and forever,
Your baby boy loves you so much.
