Terry, so sorry about your Mom. She was such a sweet lady. My Mom passed away last month (Feb. 20th), she was 93. Prayers to you and your brother. I still remember what great fun I had staying over night at your house when we were growing up; your sweet Mom did so many little extras for us. Blessings to all your family.
