My dear Carmen, someone very wise once said that the only way to take pain out of death is to take love out of life. so of course you are in pain over the loss of your Mother because you loved her so deeply. There couldn't have been a better daughter than you! Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Peace,
Ellen

Carmen, your mother was a very special lady and I know you will miss her. Just remember the good times that you had with her. I know I will remember the good times that she and my parents had together. You were a very special daughter and took the best of care for her. She is at peace now and in the presence of her Lord and Savior.
