My dearest 'Second Mother'.....
I am so sad you have left us. I loved you for so many years, as you always would listen to me, and be there for me during some bad times in my life, as well as all the good times. You always made me feel like one of your own daughters, and I treasure the relationship we had for close to 40 years! I will miss you very much but I know you are in a better place now. You will always have a very special place in my heart. Rest in peace.....Love,
Kathy
