“The e-mail contained instructions for me for their anniversary celebration this year,” writes Mendoza on Facebook in a post shared on June 10. “Apparently before my dad passed away 10 months ago, he planned everything, he even contacted and paid for a florist to deliver flowers to my mom for the coming years on every special occasion, my mom’s birthday (August 19,) Valentine’s Day, and their anniversary (June 10). The e-mail also contained a letter that he wrote for my mom which had all the words she needed to hear from him to be okay. He literally thought of everything to make his great love feel all his love,” she adds.

She goes on to describe how this year was supposed to be her parents’ 25th wedding anniversary and how her dad made arrangements to make her mom feel extra special on that day even if he was absent.
