It is hard to find words that will bring comfort. Your mom was a wonderful lady and I feel so fortunate to have had her and your family in my life growing up. Your mom always made you feel welcomed and was so generous. I will always remember her smile, her snappy personality, her amazing sense of fashion and of course her laugh. I feel so blessed to have been with all of you when she took her final breath. I hope all the stories we told and laughter we shared brought her peace as she entered into Jesus's waiting arms. May your sweet memories, loving thoughts and prayers from friends and family bring you peace. Love you all
