I got this tattoo in honour of my grandma who just passed away, her last name was Rose. The night she died, before I knew she had, I had a dream where she told me that blue butterflies are her favourite animal 💙

“I went on a 14 day silent retreat and it was probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Towards the end of the two weeks I had what I think I can only describe as an out of body experience during the 4am session. I felt an overwhelming bubble of sadness and guilt literally rise within me but it wasn’t mine I was just experiencing it for someone else, I opened my eyes in floods of soundless tears that also felt not mine.I forgave my mum there and then, and it felt natural that I would stand by her no matter what, no more distancing myself, no more pushing her to get help, I would just be there unconditionally.When I left and came back home my mum told me she had something to tell me. She’d woken up really early in the morning (around 4am) and she said it was then clear what she had to do and why she had to do it.I believe I felt what my mum was feeling. I still don’t know what my mum actually felt that morning but it gave her the power and motivation to change her life.”Black lace butterfly. This is a memorial tattoo for my piano teacher that passed away with lung cancer. She gave me 5 white lace butterflies before she died. I wanted one on my skin to remind me of her and the calmness she gave me.Redid some roses she had on her arm wish I took a before pic This was a first tattoo.  We might shade it. She pretty mich gabe me free-reign to create something for her.  I am very pleased with the outcome.My client was visiting from Australia and had no idea what she wanted and gave me free rein … this was the result ;)My mema just passed away and she loved the beach, so I got this anchor made of shells, coral, and drift wood, with her name
My great grandmother would always say this to me before we got off the phone, and after she passed, I knew it was something I had to commemorate her by.Got this done 2010 before leaving on deployment. This is for my grandma. Told her what I was going to get when she passes and she wanted to see it before she dies...she still kickinMy sister passed away in a car accident and all i had from her was this. She wrote it on my chalkboard in my room during Thanksgiving. Number 11, “remember me” in my Nana’s handwriting. I had wanted a tattoo in her memory since she had passed away when I was 8. Shortly after she passed, my Tata brought me a purse from her and explained to me she had wanted me to have it but never got the chance to give it to me. It had some rings, minerals from a gem show, and a note containing this sentiment. Also a Friday the 13th piece!I got this in memory of my mom. She left us four years ago. I miss her everyday and I can still hear  her voice:) she had the best southern twang ever! I love you momma❤This was my very first tattoo that I got when I was 16 years old. I got it for my grandma (who adopted me so she was also my mom) after she passed away. Its (obvously) a butterfly and underneath it says "Nana" which was what we called her. I chose the colors purple and blue because they were two of her favorite colors; and I chose a butterfly because she loved them a lot! Its on my upper back/lower neck.
