Sarah, I ask myself those very same questions all the time. I will never figure out why God saw fit to take a young woman and leave her children to be raised by relatives. Will the 9 year old remember her? I try to remember how much I remember of my mother from that age and only a few memories stand out. How do I make sure that they will remember my daughter? I try to talk to them about her and memories I have of her just to keep there own memories alive. But, it is painful for me and I don't know if it will work. I can only pray so. No one in this forum will ever, ever tell you to "get over it". We all love you Sarah.
