Dear Sybrina,
While I can’t even begin to imagine your pain I would still like to offer my love, support and admiration to you. Your faith and courage and ability to stand when many of us would’ve fallen and still be on the floor is nothing short of remarkable. You are an inspiration and a blessing to women everywhere.
Happy Mother’s Day to you from one mother to another may God continue to bless and keep you in all that you do. My family and I stand with you and your family on your quest for justice.
Prayers, love and Support

Memories
The memories we hold deep within our heart, can bring us joy, or tear us apart. They surface when we’re lonely, they make us cry, As we sort through painful memories, of days gone by. They can cause such sadness and heartache too, We even wonder at times if we’ll make it through.
The memories are our past, we never let them go, They are also our future to help us grow. Memories within the heart, always stay, But given time, the pain, will go away.
Give yourself the time, for when heartache is real You need to grieve before wounds can heal. Then you can look back, once in awhile, And memories will be there to remember with a smile.
They’ll bring you comfort, there’ll be no more pain, And your heart will be free… to love again.
Happy mothers day from a very big family u gained <3

My Dear Sybrina:
Prayer changes things. My heart is with you. God is hugging you and your son.

Ms. Sybrina Fulton,
I am a mother of 4 children. I first became aware of Trayvon’s death during a Sunday morning news program in March. I was so outraged that immediately I went to the change.org site to sign your petition. I have followed the updates ever since. My heart cannot know your pain. All I kept thinking once I learned of this horrible tragedy is how easily this could have been anyone of my children or their friends. And how together through your petition I wanted to help bring about change. A Mother’s love and bond with her child has nothing to do with the color of skin. The connection with our children is timeless. It stretches from the past—even before they were born and reaches into the future. Our children have always been with us and will always be with us. It is a spiritual gift God has given every Mother. Trayvon lives on spiritually and has become every Mother’s son. In his memory, I wish you a blessed day with your loved ones.
Another Mother
On your face, I can see the pain that you are going through.
By all accounts, Trayvon was a typical boy - and I wish so much that he was here.
Please continue to keep your faith. God loves you.
Best wishes for Mothers Day 2012 and all future Mother’s Days to come.

Greetings!
I just want to send some love and support your way. I am from Lansing, MI and I have literally made my sick over the Trayvon Martin Shooting. I am a black woman with a son 19 years old and my heart cries daily for your son, your pain and your entire family.
Black people have endured so much injustice, that it’s hard to have faith in the justice system. I walk with faith and I know that God will see this thru. I have not lost a son, but I have lost my mother and the pain from losing my mother was unbearable, I don’t want to imagine the lost of a child. God bless you and keep your head up, I will continue to pray for you and his father, and the rest of your family.
Let go and let God! Justice will prevail!
Be Blessed in the Lord, God almighty; Amen

Hi Ms. Sybrina,
I just wanted to say you are not alone. The world is still watching over you and your family. I can’t even imagine how you feel on this Mother’s Day, I have three kids myself and Lord Have Mercy, I can’t even put the words in writing how I would feel if someone did this to my child. I will continue to pray and hope justice be served for your family. Trayvon will not die in vain. Things must and will change behind all this corruptness as a nation. Justice will prevail in Jesus name Amen!
I can’t even free right saying have a Happy Mother’s Day because how can one do that under the circumstances. Just know he is sending you strength and love from above. He is saying I have one of the Best Mother Ever! Know that! True Spit!
I wish you for this upcoming day, STRENGTH, COURAGE, CALMNESS, & GOD’S PRESENCE ALL AROUND YOU.
XOXO
FROM A MOTHERLESS CHILD
Dearest Sybrina,
I just wanted to let you know that my heart, prayers, frustration and tears are with you on this, which has to be yet one more intensely, heart-wrenching, unspeakably painful day for you. I write to thank you for what you have done for every black mother, every brown mother, every mother of a young son who lives with that unspoken fear that we all carry so deep within our hearts. You spoke our pain with your pain. You spoke our truth with your truth. You answer our deepest yearnings with every small, large and painful thing you do to pursue the justice that your sweet beautiful boy, Trayvon, so rightly deserves.
Thank you for your courage. Thank you for bearing your soul to give the world a glimpse of our stories, our hearts, and our love. Your son is our son. Your love is our love. Your heart is our heart. Your story is our story. Your pain is the burden we mothers carry as our sweet adorable black and brown boys begin to blossom into manhood. Trayvon’s life and sacrifice will never be in vain, will never be forgotten and will be the story of every black boy whose story was never told, whose mother still weeps, and for those of us who still lives in fear.
I watched my sister Rachael grieve the loss of her only son 3 years ago when he was 19 years old. The depth of her pain could never truly be spoken with words. The anguish within her could not be comforted by the human touch. The longing in her heart remains with her to this day. She heals slowly, reluctantly and with the inspiration of the love she and Ryan shared.
She and I cry, grieve and forever stand with you in God’s love, tenderness and power through our most heart-felt prayers. You are forever, always and never-ending Trayvon Martin’s mother.
From another mother of a young black son. We mothers love you and thank you.
Sincerely,
Sherri
Happy Mother’s Day
