Dearest Aunt Beth,
I don’t even know where to begin. I find myself thinking about you all the time, and the silence where your voice used to be is almost deafening. I miss you, Beth. More than words can say, more than the world itself.
It feels strange writing this letter, knowing you won't be able to read it. But somehow, it feels important, like getting these feelings out onto paper is a way to connect with you, even just a little.
I remember coming to Florida to see you...We made the most awesome homemade pizza,played games,and caught up on lost time. That memory, like so many others, is so vivid in my mind. I can almost hear your voice, see your smile... it's bittersweet, a comfort and a reminder of what I've lost.
Life just isn't the same without you. I miss being able to call or text you,and you always reply with the best responses.. I find myself wanting to share things with you, good news, bad news, silly little things that I know would have made you laugh.
I know you wouldn't want me to be sad, but it's hard. I try to remember the strength and joy you always radiated, the way you always found the good in everything. I'm trying to live my life in a way that would make you proud.
I hope you're at peace, Aunt Beth. I hope wherever you are, you're surrounded by love and light and everything that brought you joy.
Know that you are always in my heart, always remembered, and deeply, deeply missed.
All my love,
Heidi Petraroi
