So sorry for the loss of your beautiful mother. She will be missed by so many who knew her. She always was welcoming you with a smile and a hug. Now she will be with her loving husband Ed who we still miss also. My condolences to her entire family.

So sorry for your loss. Kathy, you and your family have been so strong, and such a great source of comfort for your Mom- you should be proud of how you all eased her passing. If you need anything, dont hesitate to ask.
