I send my sincere condolences to your family. Your Mom was an angel on earth. She was always kind and gentle and displayed great affection for all her children. I remember when she worked downtown at Fannie Mae. She was quite a lady.
May she watch over you as an angel in heaven now. I pray you find peace in your memories and hold her close in spirit.
