Larry and Teresa so sorry to hear about the passing of your Mother. Right her at Mother's Day too. Bless her heart she lived a long life. You were so fortunate to have her here with you all. I lost my mother at age 78 on Mother's Day. There is not a day that goes by that I don't miss her. Please know all of your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Life on earth will never be the same, but we will see our loved ones again. Love you all! Mary and Corkie Steadman

Sharon, so sorry for your loss but it reads like she had a long and wonderful life. It´s never easy to let your Mother go, but when life for her isn´t really life, it´s a blessing to let them go and join your dad and our loving Heavenly Father . Prayers and much love sweet friend
