Debbe an family,
I am so sorry about your mom's death. She was a sweet person, and had a soft, loving voice. I enjoyed going to church with her at Calvary Baptist. She enjoyed working with the kids and they always had a good program.
May you be comforted by the many warm thoughts of those who care.
My prayers are with you all during this time.
