Our mom was a quiet little lady who worried about all of us and was also there to help us in any way she could. We were never too old to listen and learn. She never forgot any of our birthdays, always remembered all of us at Christmas and we will miss those cards signed with a simple Love, Mom or Love, Grandma. And of course there was always a little cash. She would say there was getting to be too many, but she never stopped sending them. Of course we cannot forget about all the delicious homemade baked goods she made. They too were the best and she was the best. Mom, We Love You and We Will Miss You.
