Althoug many years have passed, since I knew your mother (back in 1970/71, when I lived as an exchange student with her neighbors, the Raths), it made me sad to hear that she has died. I remember her the way I saw her back then: a gentle, dear, and friendly lady. My thoughts and heart will be with you at her funeral.
