Remembering your mom as I
Remembering your mom as I read of her passing. Please know that your family is in my prayers. I remember her from my years when Deb and I shared a wonderful friendship. She would always welcome me into your home with open arms and a smile.

The passing of your mom was truly a sad day for us all. She was so instrumental in any undertaking that I wanted to do and was always supportive in any of my "schemes"! I will miss "the happy hooker" as we lovingly called her, but know that heaven is a better place with an angel such as her. my love to your family.....pam
