Rose and family,
I didn't know your Mom had passed. It's a sad time for family who are left behind but happy for the loved one who has passed to be back home again. She didn't have to be away from her son for too long. Your Mom was strong and sure of herself. A very kind and generous person, giving of herself to so many people, always very nice to my Mom and to me. I'll see you soon.
