I can't begin to tell you how much we will miss your Mom at Morning Pointe. She always had a smile on her face, and not an ill word to say about anyone. She was a fine example of a Christian Mother, and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her sweet smile. I know she is strolling over Heaven, and I have another Angel to watch over me now. =)
Your family is amazing. It has been a pleasure to share in a chapter of your lives.
Much Love,
Becca

The loss of a loved one, and particularly one who gave us and shaped our lives is always difficult and hard to accept. I know that your and Lola's faith will provide the strength and courage so vital during this time.
Susan and I will keep you in our thoughts and our prayers.
