Losing a parent is so hard, but knowing that their not suffering and with the Lord, helps a lot. Daddy can't come back to our family, but we can go to him. Sending our heartfelt sympathy to your family. When my Daddy died I heard an expression I remember to this day, Earth's loss is heavens gain. It's not goodbye, but goodnight see you in the morning 🙏✝️♥️
Your garden is so beautiful and tomatoes are so tall . Blessings from God . 🙏❤️🤗 . Matt , you and twins my condolences to you all and his family . Tell granny to take care of herself and extend my sympathy to her as well . I'm sure she loved Miss Cindy also . You'll have a good day tomorrow . 🙏
Praying for Strength and Comfort as you lay your Mother, Miss Cindy to Rest Tomorrow, and all the Days that Follow! Love and Prayers for your Entire Family!!
Y’all have been in my thoughts and prayers for awhile now. My daddy died with lung cancer, as a matter of fact it will be one year he has been gone on the 27th. He also suffered, wasted away to a fraction of the man he once was. I watched my hero go from the toughest man I know to the very weakest. He would tell us he was so sorry when we had to help take him to the bathroom, he would say I never wanted my girls to take care of me. It was just my mom, and my sister ,and me. He lost all his pride and dignity BUT one thing he never lost was his faith and the night before he went into the coma state he was in ,he was praising the Lord. I too thank God for hospice and the sweet nurses that were with us and cared about Daddy. Honestly your channel and the things that you said around Christmas is what helped me get through the holidays. You have no idea the impact y’all have on everyone that watches you. You helped me get through one of the darkest times of my life. Your love for family and the Lord was such an inspiration. I wish I could do the same for y’all ,but I can pray for you and trust the Lord for your peace and comfort. Thank you for letting us be a part of your family. (((Hugs)))
You have been missed by many, Tipper. I'm sure that Miss Cindy will be missed for a long time to come. She raised a great son and a solid citizen. His compassion and kindness to others and his sense of responsibility toward his family is exemplary. If one leaves a legacy of such children, they've made a great contribution to society. The values that she imparted to Matt are being passed on to Katie and Corie. You all will be in my thoughts tomorrow. May your warm memories of Miss Cindy give solace to you all.
What a good daughter in law you've been, Tipper. You fulfill the 5th commandment with loving care. After you lay Miss Cindy to rest tomorrow, it will be your time to rest and see to your own needs. You will all be stronger on the shoulders of the ones who came before.
So so happy to see your smiles! Your beautiful Ms Cindy has for sure left behind an amazing legacy!!! To know that she had a "difficult childhood", and to see the photographs of her that depict nothing short of a classic American beauty, shows how strong of a spirit she truly had. 🙏❤️ You remain in my prayers.
My wife and I enjoy watching you from NSW Australia. Our condolences on your loss. We have both lost parents in the last two years. Gardening provides excellent therapy.
Look at the pride in Matt's eyes when he speaks about his daughters caring for their grandmother. You both can be very proud of instilling the love of God and family into your children. My wife and I have 7 kids and the world has gotten to many of them despite our best efforts. Our community isn't as tight-knit as your mountain community, though I wish that it were. Ours is very rural. Our closest Walmart is 45 minutes away, but so few go to church around here anymore that it's sad. I hope the 'south' never loses it's reputation for church-going people. I've seen far too many kids go to church, get confirmed, then disappear. It's so sad.
Thanks for “stepping back in the garden,” sitting on the bench, and sharing with us out loud. What a gift. Get some rest, Tipper and Matt. Let the small stuff go for now.
My mother was from Kentucky and died 4 years ago tragically of pancreatic cancer at 84 years old. I don't hear southern accents much since I live California now, so I love listening to you guys talk. It reminds me of my grandma and my mother gardening, cooking, talking, making simple delicious food. My mom made cornbread with bacon grease, and the best fried chicken. I loved the green onions, tomatoes and cucumbers and lemonade for Sunday suppers. Plus the desserts. Thank you for producing this great channel!
I lost my mama 4 1/2 years ago. It's something you never get over. The fresh grief lessens through time but it will always be there. Continued prayers 🙏
Dear Pressely family, Please accept this heartfelt condolence on the loss of your Ms Cindy. Thank you for sharing your lives with us, thank you for sharing your recipes. You all are good people. God Bless You. ❤
One day at a time. Even after things seem to calm down, you'll still feel like you are on a roller coaster of emotion for some time. Prayers for grace, comfort and peace for you all.
Tipper, it was a very compassionate thing you did when you told Miss Cindy even if she didn't remember you, you would still be there. It brought on tears. My mother fought cancer and also had Alzheimers. She lived with it about 7 years. She did forget who I was by name, but every time I was with her I could tell by the look in her eyes that she knew who I was. I will be praying for your family.
“I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories.” And it warmed my heart to see both of you again at the homestead! Thank You Tipper and Matt
I am so so sorry for your loss!!! I will be sending a check for you!!! Do what you need to do with it!!! You all are still in my thoughts and prayers every day!!! God Bless you all!!!
You are an amazing family. To quiet my mind I turn to your videos. I am so sorry for your loss but rejoicing in the fact that Ms Cindy has made it home. Prayers for all.
I planted some Mississippi pink eyes yesterday because ya'll said you loved them so much. I am growing Cherokee purple tomatoes this year for the first time. I just love you guys. I'm so very sorry for the loss of Miss Cindy. I can't imagine the joy she is feeling being in the presence of God. I lost my mom almost 6 years ago. We shared the same birthday! My prayers are with you all.
I'm so sorry for your loss and continue to pray for your family! Tipper, you're the first person who ever described the waiting and watching the loss of a loved one the way I felt it. I know you are experiencing loss, but you've helped me heal a bit with the loss of my Dad. I watched him lay in hospice for 9 days thinking, "will this never end?" I didn't want him to die, but he was so ready to go home. It's difficult because you don't know what they know, hear, fell, etc. You also feel this tug to grieve but you feel held back because they are still here. It's such a hard place to be in. I understand what you're saying and thank you for saying it! Prayers and love!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and memories of Miss Cindy's terrible sickness and passing. I don't know why, but I really appreciate it. I feel so sad for your family. Your comments that you and Matt said about Corie and Katie going through this will help them as a person and help them in the future is so true. Proud for the garden being so "lush" as Matt said. Bounty is next! Thank you so much for sharing Tipper!
Your pain is so very heartfelt by all of us. It is so very hard to go through something as hard as this. I am caring for my 95 year old aunt and I moved up to Virginia from South Texas in order to do so. It’s hard Tipper, so, so hard. You draw strength from each other and God will continue to guide you.❤
Dear Tipper, Here it is September 2024, and I’m rewatching the video of Miss Cindy’s passing last summer. You’re such a special person that I never tire of watching and listening to you. You’ve been one of the biggest blessings in my life during this past year! THANK YOU! Your deep faith shines through in everything you do and say, and I love that about you! You don’t “preach” your faith…….you “live” it. Please know you’re so very appreciated and dearly loved! Love and blessings, Jackie🪷
I can sure see the stress on Tippers face. She has been through alot. Matt is a strong man & deals with loss the way strong men do. God bless you both and comfort you.❤❤❤
Sorry for the loss of Ms. Cindy. That was such a quick process. Her picture with her obituary was so beautiful. I could see the girls in her. May God give you peace as only He can. Enjoy your videos.
Matt's joke about the breathalyzer cracked me up. I've always loved that even in the midst of the intense grief that comes with losing a loved one, we somehow still have room in our hearts and minds for joy and humor. And how lovely for Miss Cindy to be laid to rest so close to Pap, just so special. Keeping y'all in my heart and wishing you peace during this time ❤
Thanks Tipper and Matt, for your loving and heartfelt tributes for Miss Cindy, your Family's love and support is amazing. Sad times like these can be overwhelming and exhausting. Our God Bless and keep you all in His comfort.
Dear Pressley Family, I am so sorry for the loss of Ms. Cindy. I know you all loved her dearly & will miss her greatly. Just hold the precious memories you each have of her close & in so doing, you will keep a part of her alive in your hearts. When we do this, our loved ones never truly die! God bless you, each & every one.❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m glad to see that Matt hasn’t lost his sense of humor…reminding Tipper of the breathalyzer 😂 God bless you and keep you through this Matt. I love the garden…but popsicle time under the trees with you two, is my favorite - just like family. My heart and prayers are with you and for you all, as you wrestle with this dichotomy of feelings after an earthly event like this. 💔
A funeral is for the living. We need the ritual to help in the grieving process and we need to share our love and sorrow with others. I've always felt it was selfish of the sick to say they didn't want anything. I just don't know what I would have done if I'd honored by husband's wish to just be buried, no service. His mother needed that ritual and the ones he grew up around wanted to pay their respects to his family and mine, our friends wanted the same. We need that fellowship to start our heart to heal.
Monday will be an emotional day. May you all take solace in knowing He had mercy on Miss Cindy and that y'all did everything you could to support her and show her love. No regrets.
So sorry for you all at the loss of Ms. Cindy. I will rejoice she is now in the arms of the Lord and pray for you all to manage the grief with His help 💛🙏🏻
We had an amazing hailstorm this afternoon! We think we may have lost our blueberries though. You have my condolences on the loss of Miss Cindy. You're all in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings to you and your family.
I am so sorry for Miss Cindy’s passing. It is hard to say sorry when she is in the presence of Jesus! The sadness is for y’all. You have such beautiful memories of her it will help in sad times to come.🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@CelebratingAppalachia My husband said they are okay. We have a blueberry farm. It used to be a pick-your-own, but insurance made it to where it was no longer cost effective. Now we pick the berries and sell them at a farmers' market. I'm glad the berries are ok.
I went to a memorial service today for a dear friend. Cancer. I can see the sadness in both of your eyes. Grief is the price we pay for love. Bless you all. Sending love and prayers.
Tipper and Matt, I don't usually comment on videos. Sometimes I will leave an emoji such as this ❤. Today I felt compelled to leave a comment and let you know how peaceful and relaxing I find your videos. I watch your videos so much, I feel like you all are family. I'm so very sorry about Miss Cindy. I worry about the sadness you must be feeling. Matt I wanted to tell you please don't forget to take care of yourself, Miss Cindy would definitely be upset if you didn't. I see the stress in your voice and in your appearance for both of you. So please take the time to heal yourselves and not worry about your videos. Your "family" will still be here just as you told Miss Cindy.
You are ALL such good souls. You are a blessing to me. To so many others by watching and seeing your Faith & way of life( in action) Thank you for that. Love & hugs for you all.♥️🌹♥️✝️
Like Miss Cindy, I’ve always been impressed and amazed at your garden as well as your knowledge of vegetables, plants, and flowers. Matt did a great job of planting those herbs. Thank you for sharing about Miss Cindy. She was blessed to have you, Matt, Katie, and Corie caring for her on her last journey. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all through this time of grief. God bless you❣️
Y’all have raised wonderful girls. It is hard now , but they will treasure the last days with their grandmother. It is a privilege to comfort a soul in their final hours. God Bless your family. 🙏🏻
Stoic. Miss Cindy seemed stoic in her approach to what came. So dignified! I admire her very much. God bless you all. Thinking of you today as you lay her to rest, and praying for you. 🙌🏼 🕊 💞 P.s. What a beautiful choice for her resting place, remembering it from videos past. THANK YOU all and God bless you all.
Like Ms Cindy would say she’s sorry for y’all having to do things for her…my sweet Granny would do the same thing, saying she’s so sorry for me having to wash her and change her up like a Baby, but she couldn’t stand those adult diapers…so I started getting her Depends ,and she loved her pull ups, she loved to help me pull them up because she missed her underwear so much…I told her she didn’t have to apologize to me for anything,… that she raised me and now it’s my turn to help her… oh how I miss my Granny Allen & Grandaddy Allen 😢😢…❤❤
So very sorry to hear of Miss Cindy’s passing. Thursday was a sad day for me as well. My dad passed away at age 87. His cancer came back and it was very sudden. ❤He will be laid to rest this Friday. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!
Just got the news 'bout Miss Cindy..so very sorry for your family, but I feel she is healed and home My husband and I cared for my Mom in the same way you all cared for Miss Cindy just 7 months ago..Soo very painful and stressful..takes a toll on the body, mind and spirit.. Wish our words could somehow ease your sadness, but in our hearts, we know the most they can do is simply tell you how much we care🙏🫂
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us during this difficult time . I know it wasn’t an easy video for either of you. My Heart goes out to all of you during this time. You are all in my prayers. Also so sorry to hear about your friend.
You all have precious girls and I do too. We have 3 daughters, so, so, precious. Since we are having so much problems with knees and me with a bad foot, they are having our yard mowed for us this year. Prayers for the whole family the Lord will guide you through all your needs…love you all if you were my family.
Our deepest sympathies for Matt and this entire family in losing Miss Cindy. Your faith will be of great comfort during this difficult time. We’re thinking of y’all and praying for everyone. 🙏🙏🙏 Mike and Judy
Tipper, Matt, Katy and Corey, so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your sharing all times with your family, the good and the bad. You have no idea how what you say touches and encourages others. You are such good people, so honest, kind, thoughtful and very sincere. I don’t listen every day to you but when I do I always get something out of your videos. Thank you for all you do! I love your cookbook Tipper! God be with you all at this time of sorrow. I know he is with you!
It is nice to see you back Popsicle twins. The garden is coming along and you will be eating the reward for all your hard work. I am sure gardening is therapeutic as well. Enjoy being back.
God bless you and your family let Matt know how sorry I am for for his loss I understand I lost my mom when she was 43 you all take care of yourself now and again my thoughts and prayers are with you all
Continuing to remember y’all in our prayers. We mentioned your family in church this morning. Don’t worry about any of us leaving. I don’t think you could run us off with a broom! 😀 Your garden is looking great. I’m also looking forward to my first tomato sandwich! Take care and get some rest. May the Lord bless your sweet and precious family! 😀❤️
Tipper and Matt, it was good to see y'all today. I see your strength and your faith, but I see your sadness too. I shed tears when your voice broke Tipper. Please know that we will all be here and rewatching videos until you feel like making new ones. I just want you to take care of yourselves and each other. I have been through this and know the toll it takes on loved ones as we are caregivers. I wish I could just reach through the screen and hug all of you. Y'all continue to be in my prayers and on Monday I will be lifting each of you up throughout the day. Y'all are such a precious family. May God Bless you!🙏🏻❣🙏🏻
Matt and Tipper, thank you for taking the time to post this video. You all are just so precious, you're sweet family are all in my prayers, God bless and comfort each of you as only He can in this time of grief. ❤️🙏
In our church cemetery, my father, grandfather, members and deacons of the church would take turns each week to tend to the cemetery and it was arranged on a calendar. We are still thinking of y’all and know that the girls’ faith will grow from this so that they can pass on to your grandchildren (Tipper and Matt, they are WONDERFUL!) . I can’t wait for y’all to turn that page! We love ya! God bless!
Sending love and prayers to all of you. Miss Cindy is in the presence of the Lord and one day we'll be reunited with all those we loved that went before us. It's not really goodbye, it's just we'll see you after while! 💕🙏
I just watched Pap and Paul sing. What a Blessing that you came from such an awesome family. You your husband, your girls and Granny are such a joy to watch. My Dad passed at age 42, I was 20. I always wonder how great it would have been for my daughter and grand kids to have known him. As a believer, I know he, my Mom, my Brother, and Grandma are resting in Peace, with no sadness, no pain, no hunger and no thirst. At leat thats what I pray for in my daiky prayers. I also ask our Lord and Savior and Almighty God to Grant them Memory Eternal and for forgiveness of sins. We are Russian Orthodox and all of ou famiky have been brought up in the Orthdox Church, since my GG and Papa came from Russia in 1913. I feel very Blessed to have worshipped with so many elderly people, it really humbles you. Prayers for you, your husband, the girls and your family. May God Grant Miss Cindy Eternal Memory and forgive her sins. Rest in peace Miss Cindy. fyi I am born and raised in Michigan. 🙏💜🙏
I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of Miss Cindy. I so enjoyed the video where she shows how she does her ham. I will always be using her method for any ham I cook. Absolutely the best ever. Know that ya'll are in my heart and prayers.
Matt and Tipper I'm so very sorry for your loss. I had the honor to be with my Mama when she passed. I am grateful you all were with Miss Cindy. We know she is with Jesus and is totally healed. My prayers are with you all. So good to see you in your garden. 💕
Praying for peace and comfort for all of you. I buried my dad at 24 from cancer and mom at 34 also from cancer. They're home in their glorified bodies with Father God!
We appreciate you all sharing your world good and bad with us. Your channel is always a place of peace even in the hardest of times. I wrote this with tests in my eyes my heart breaks for you all. Love and prayers 🙏💕 thank you again for sharing your peaceful world. P.s the mother's day bench is awesome Matt. Almost like your mother's always there in the garden too now 🌸🌞🌿
☕☕So often my missed loved ones have me laughing during a memory, mutually original of the moments we shared. And their voices continue lifelike, lending me the laughing situations we put ourselves into together. Miss Cindy, like a 🌻Sunflower, can be standing tall in your garden, full of seeds of your sunny memories 💛
Matt my dad had “girls” too. Mom and 4 daughters. He was a blacksmith in our small village and had a habit of calling mom each day after work to see if she needed anything from the grocery. Usually he could count on tampons and the like with that many females in his house! He was wonderful!
Please receive my heartfelt condolences for Matt's mother, Corrie and Katy's grandmother and Tipper's mother-in-law. May Mrs. Cindy rest in peace. God rest her soul and may He give you the comfort and solace you need at this difficult and painful time. It seems to me that Matt is handling this painful loss very well: despite all the grief that inevitably permeates the mourning process, he remains firm and composed, a pillar of the Pressley family others can lean on. God bless and keep you all.

I've always loved that even in the midst of the intense grief that comes with losing a loved one, we somehow still have room in our hearts and minds for joy and humor. And how lovely for Miss Cindy to be laid to rest so close to Pap, just so special. Keeping y'all in my heart and wishing you peace during this time ❤
Thanks Tipper and Matt, for your loving and heartfelt tributes for Miss Cindy, your Family's love and support is amazing. Sad times like these can be overwhelming and exhausting. Our God Bless and keep you all in His comfort.
Dear Pressley Family, I am so sorry for the loss of Ms. Cindy. I know you all loved her dearly & will miss her greatly. Just hold the precious memories you each have of her close & in so doing, you will keep a part of her alive in your hearts. When we do this, our loved ones never truly die! God bless you, each & every one.❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
I love what Matt said, “You do what you have to do.”
May God’s Love surround you all.
I’m glad to see that Matt hasn’t lost his sense of humor…reminding Tipper of the breathalyzer 😂 God bless you and keep you through this Matt. I love the garden…but popsicle time under the trees with you two, is my favorite - just like family. My heart and prayers are with you and for you all, as you wrestle with this dichotomy of feelings after an earthly event like this. 💔
Thank you 😀
So sorry for your family's huge loss. Lost my mother 2 years ago. I thank the good Lord we will see our loved ones again! God bless you all.
Bless you!
A funeral is for the living. We need the ritual to help in the grieving process and we need to share our love and sorrow with others. I've always felt it was selfish of the sick to say they didn't want anything. I just don't know what I would have done if I'd honored by husband's wish to just be buried, no service. His mother needed that ritual and the ones he grew up around wanted to pay their respects to his family and mine, our friends wanted the same. We need that fellowship to start our heart to heal.
So sorry about Miss Cindys passing. Keeping your family in thoughts and prayers.
Thanks so much!
Monday will be an emotional day. May you all take solace in knowing He had mercy on Miss Cindy and that y'all did everything you could to support her and show her love. No regrets.
So sorry for you all at the loss of Ms. Cindy. I will rejoice she is now in the arms of the Lord and pray for you all to manage the grief with His help 💛🙏🏻
@stevieray yes she has run her race, and knowing she has trusted God, loving Him, can give loved ones hope,peace!
To lose your dear friend on top of things…I am so sorry💛
Thank you!!
Whenever the Silver Cord doth part, The SOUL Instantly Goes back to the Father who Created You and Loves You.
Tipper, you are an angel. Beautiful spirit. God bless your family
You are so kind-thank you!
@@CelebratingAppalachia You are welcome 🩷
You have my deepest condolences on the loss of Miss Cindy. You're all in my thoughts and prayers.
We had an amazing hailstorm this afternoon! We think we may have lost our blueberries though. You have my condolences on the loss of Miss Cindy. You're all in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings to you and your family.
Thank you! I hope it didn’t get all of them.
I am so sorry for Miss Cindy’s passing. It is hard to say sorry when she is in the presence of Jesus! The sadness is for y’all. You have such beautiful memories of her it will help in sad times to come.🙏✝️🙏✝️🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@CelebratingAppalachia My husband said they are okay. We have a blueberry farm. It used to be a pick-your-own, but insurance made it to where it was no longer cost effective. Now we pick the berries and sell them at a farmers' market. I'm glad the berries are ok.
I went to a memorial service today for a dear friend. Cancer. I can see the sadness in both of your eyes. Grief is the price we pay for love. Bless you all. Sending love and prayers.
Welcome back Matt and Tipper. So very sorry for Miss Cindys home going. Many prayers for Gods comfort.❤
Thank you 😊
Love and hugs to you and your family. May Miss Cindy be with Jesus 💜💜💜
Sorry to hear about Matt’s mother. It’s hard losing a parent
Sorry for your loss. Lost my mom 3 years ago, still miss her. Prayers and time helps.😊
Thank you! I’m sorry you lost her!
Tipper and Matt, I don't usually comment on videos. Sometimes I will leave an emoji such as this ❤. Today I felt compelled to leave a comment and let you know how peaceful and relaxing I find your videos. I watch your videos so much, I feel like you all are family. I'm so very sorry about Miss Cindy. I worry about the sadness you must be feeling. Matt I wanted to tell you please don't forget to take care of yourself, Miss Cindy would definitely be upset if you didn't. I see the stress in your voice and in your appearance for both of you. So please take the time to heal yourselves and not worry about your videos. Your "family" will still be here just as you told Miss Cindy.
Thank you!! We appreciate you 😀
You are ALL such good souls. You are a blessing to me. To so many others by watching and seeing your Faith & way of life( in action) Thank you for that. Love & hugs for you all.♥️🌹♥️✝️
Like Miss Cindy, I’ve always been impressed and amazed at your garden as well as your knowledge of vegetables, plants, and flowers. Matt did a great job of planting those herbs. Thank you for sharing about Miss Cindy. She was blessed to have you, Matt, Katie, and Corie caring for her on her last journey. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all through this time of grief. God bless you❣️
I didn't realize, Miss Cindy has already left us behind. Hugs and prayers to you all, and CONGRATULATIONS to you Miss Cindy ❤️
I couldn't have said it better!❤
Thanks so much!!
Matt, you were very kind to help Mr. Roper with his water.
Y’all have raised wonderful girls. It is hard now , but they will treasure the last days with their grandmother. It is a privilege to comfort a soul in their final hours. God Bless your family. 🙏🏻
So sorry to hear about Ms. Cindy's passing. May God hold you all in His comforting arms. Prayers & love for you all - .
All of your plants look healthy and beautiful! My sympathies and prayers for the passing of Miss Cindy.
Thank you!
The price of great love is great grief. True. I still sorely miss my Dad, decades later. So beautiful how much you love each other.
Stoic. Miss Cindy seemed stoic in her approach to what came. So dignified! I admire her very much. God bless you all. Thinking of you today as you lay her to rest, and praying for you. 🙌🏼 🕊 💞 P.s. What a beautiful choice for her resting place, remembering it from videos past. THANK YOU all and God bless you all.
Like Ms Cindy would say she’s sorry for y’all having to do things for her…my sweet Granny would do the same thing, saying she’s so sorry for me having to wash her and change her up like a Baby, but she couldn’t stand those adult diapers…so I started getting her Depends ,and she loved her pull ups, she loved to help me pull them up because she missed her underwear so much…I told her she didn’t have to apologize to me for anything,… that she raised me and now it’s my turn to help her… oh how I miss my Granny Allen & Grandaddy Allen 😢😢…❤❤
Bless you!
So very sorry to hear of Miss Cindy’s passing. Thursday was a sad day for me as well. My dad passed away at age 87. His cancer came back and it was very sudden. ❤He will be laid to rest this Friday. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers!
Bless you! I'm so sorry you lost him!! I will be praying for you and your family!!
Just got the news 'bout Miss Cindy..so very sorry for your family, but I feel she is healed and home
My husband and I cared for my Mom in the same way you all cared for Miss Cindy just 7 months ago..Soo very painful and stressful..takes a toll on the body, mind and spirit..
Wish our words could somehow ease your sadness, but in our hearts, we know the most they can do is simply tell you how much we care🙏🫂
Bless you! And thank you!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us during this difficult time . I know it wasn’t an easy video for either of you. My Heart goes out to all of you during this time. You are all in my prayers. Also so sorry to hear about your friend.
You all have precious girls and I do too. We have 3 daughters, so, so, precious. Since we are having so much problems with knees and me with a bad foot, they are having our yard mowed for us this year. Prayers for the whole family the Lord will guide you through all your needs…love you all if you were my family.
Our deepest sympathies for Matt and this entire family in losing Miss Cindy. Your faith will be of great comfort during this difficult time. We’re thinking of y’all and praying for everyone. 🙏🙏🙏 Mike and Judy
Tipper, Matt, Katy and Corey, so sorry for your loss. Thank you for your sharing all times with your family, the good and the bad. You have no idea how what you say touches and encourages others. You are such good people, so honest, kind, thoughtful and very sincere. I don’t listen every day to you but when I do I always get something out of your videos. Thank you for all you do! I love your cookbook Tipper! God be with you all at this time of sorrow. I know he is with you!
It is nice to see you back Popsicle twins. The garden is coming along and you will be eating the reward for all your hard work. I am sure gardening is therapeutic as well. Enjoy being back.
Thank you for visiting with us 😀
Dear Matt,Tipper,& Family,

God bless you and your family let Matt know how sorry I am for for his loss I understand I lost my mom when she was 43 you all take care of yourself now and again my thoughts and prayers are with you all
Thank you!
I am so sorry that Matt lost his Mama. Prayers for all of you during this sad time. I love you all. 🙁💗
Continuing to remember y’all in our prayers. We mentioned your family in church this morning. Don’t worry about any of us leaving. I don’t think you could run us off with a broom! 😀 Your garden is looking great. I’m also looking forward to my first tomato sandwich! Take care and get some rest. May the Lord bless your sweet and precious family! 😀❤️
Nope couldn’t run me off!! 😂 I love ‘em too much!!
Tipper and Matt, it was good to see y'all today. I see your strength and your faith, but I see your sadness too. I shed tears when your voice broke Tipper. Please know that we will all be here and rewatching videos until you feel like making new ones. I just want you to take care of yourselves and each other. I have been through this and know the toll it takes on loved ones as we are caregivers. I wish I could just reach through the screen and hug all of you. Y'all continue to be in my prayers and on Monday I will be lifting each of you up throughout the day. Y'all are such a precious family. May God Bless you!🙏🏻❣🙏🏻
Matt and Tipper, thank you for taking the time to post this video. You all are just so precious, you're sweet family are all in my prayers, God bless and comfort each of you as only He can in this time of grief. ❤️🙏
In our church cemetery, my father, grandfather, members and deacons of the church would take turns each week to tend to the cemetery and it was arranged on a calendar.
We are still thinking of y’all and know that the girls’ faith will grow from this so that they can pass on to your grandchildren (Tipper and Matt, they are WONDERFUL!) .
I can’t wait for y’all to turn that page!
We love ya!
God bless!
Sending love and prayers to all of you. Miss Cindy is in the presence of the Lord and one day we'll be reunited with all those we loved that went before us. It's not really goodbye, it's just we'll see you after while! 💕🙏
So nice to see you both in the garden! 😊 🌿💚🌿
Please accept our sincere condolences, y’all will continue to be in our prayers 🙏❤️
I just watched Pap and Paul sing. What a Blessing that you came from such an awesome family. You your husband, your girls and Granny are such a joy to watch. My Dad passed at age 42, I was 20. I always wonder how great it would have been for my daughter and grand kids to have known him. As a believer, I know he, my Mom, my Brother, and Grandma are resting in Peace, with no sadness, no pain, no hunger and no thirst. At leat thats what I pray for in my daiky prayers. I also ask our Lord and Savior and Almighty God to Grant them Memory Eternal and for forgiveness of sins. We are Russian Orthodox and all of ou famiky have been brought up in the Orthdox Church, since my GG and Papa came from Russia in 1913. I feel very Blessed to have worshipped with so many elderly people, it really humbles you. Prayers for you, your husband, the girls and your family. May God Grant Miss Cindy Eternal Memory and forgive her sins. Rest in peace Miss Cindy. fyi I am born and raised in Michigan. 🙏💜🙏
Thank you and bless you!!
I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of Miss Cindy. I so enjoyed the video where she shows how she does her ham. I will always be using her method for any ham I cook. Absolutely the best ever. Know that ya'll are in my heart and prayers.
I haven't seen that one . I will need to go find it.
That video is where I grew so fond of miss Cindy also. She struck me as such a classy and elegant woman way back then.
Matt and Tipper I'm so very sorry for your loss. I had the honor to be with my Mama when she passed. I am grateful you all were with Miss Cindy. We know she is with Jesus and is totally healed. My prayers are with you all. So good to see you in your garden. 💕
Praying for peace and comfort for all of you. I buried my dad at 24 from cancer and mom at 34 also from cancer. They're home in their glorified bodies with Father God!
In the garden, we find healing & growth. ♥️
We appreciate you all sharing your world good and bad with us. Your channel is always a place of peace even in the hardest of times. I wrote this with tests in my eyes my heart breaks for you all. Love and prayers 🙏💕 thank you again for sharing your peaceful world.
P.s the mother's day bench is awesome Matt. Almost like your mother's always there in the garden too now 🌸🌞🌿
☕☕So often my missed loved ones have me laughing during a memory, mutually original of the moments we shared. And their voices continue lifelike, lending me the laughing situations we put ourselves into together. Miss Cindy, like a 🌻Sunflower, can be standing tall in your garden, full of seeds of your sunny memories 💛
Losing someone really hits one in the gut. Takes time and sharing.
There's nothing like country folks for kindness.
My prayers and sympathy go out to You & Matt and everyone who's heart was touched by Miss Cindy.
Whew... We're definitely into Summer here in Oklahoma ... bugs, skeeters, heat and humidity. Enjoy your cool temps for us too, y'all!
Keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers🙏 RIP Miss Cindy❤
Listening to this video again can see so much love. Thank you for sharing . This makes us all stronger in our faith. May good Bless you.
Miss Cindy was a beautiful lady. The heartache never stops when you lose a parent it just lessons a little some days. 💕
So sorry for the loss of your mother Matt. Will keep you all in prayer tomorrow during the services. 🙏🙏💐🦋
Golly, I cried for Matt. You are good people. God bless and keep you.
My deepest sympathy in the passing of Miss Cindy! God’s love comfort and bless you all!
Matt my dad had “girls” too. Mom and 4 daughters. He was a blacksmith in our small village and had a habit of calling mom each day after work to see if she needed anything from the grocery. Usually he could count on tampons and the like with that many females in his house! He was wonderful!
Please receive my heartfelt condolences for Matt's mother, Corrie and Katy's grandmother and Tipper's mother-in-law. May Mrs. Cindy rest in peace. God rest her soul and may He give you the comfort and solace you need at this difficult and painful time.
It seems to me that Matt is handling this painful loss very well: despite all the grief that inevitably permeates the mourning process, he remains firm and composed, a pillar of the Pressley family others can lean on.
God bless and keep you all.
May God give your family the peace & comfort that only He can give during these sad & difficult days.
I just want to tell y’all how sorry I am about Ms Cindy’s 🙏 loss…Prayers for y’all and Ms Cindy❤
