My dear cousin, Norma has gone home to be with her dear husband, Joe and her parents and her son. How happy they all must be to be together again. Rest in peace my dear cousin. Those left behind are sad but I know you are happy to be with your family and our Lord.

Sorry you had to say goodbye to your mom, Mr. McLaughlin. Moms are such special people and it looks like you had a lot of good times together based on some of the pictures I have seen on FB. All my thoughts to you and your family.
