My heart is heavy with this loss and grievence of all the family and many many friends who suffer from her passing. Mom was an amazing woman who we didn't even realize until now of how many lives she touched and the positive impact she made to so many. As person of strong faith, I know she has just started a new journey that one day each of us will undertake and next time we see her, I know she'll have a hearty meal ready, a warm smile, and I suspect a dominos game ready to go. She will be missed by us all, but never forgotten and she will live on through our memories and be in our thoughts and prayers forever...We love you Mom.
