Mom left this world in much the same fashion as she lived in it. On her own terms. I cannot imagine raising
Five children on my own. Somehow, she found the strength to undertake that monumental task and was up to
The challenge. For that, we have always, and shall forever be grateful. Thank you Mom. We love you and
Miss you.
