Your mom was in my life for the past 15 years, always with a donut and a smile on Fridays. She touched my life deeply. I do believe she will always be looking down on us, cheering us on.
My deepest sympathies, and most heat felt prayer to your family.

Your mom was the best mother I never had, she made me feel safe and loved and like family. She was my beauty icon and my mentor in so many ways she probably never knew. She was so confident and fierce, soft and tactful and gracious, she loved me, and that proved to me she was a saint no matter what else. Thank you for sharing your beautiful mother with me.
