We'll miss Mom - And for some strange reason I get the feeling that she might be supervising God on how to redecorate Heaven...

So sorry to hear about your Mom. Aunt Norma was a beautiful woman and my Great Aunt. What a touching tribute to her on the website...brought tears to my eyes. The pictures and video are priceless. Please know that my thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Thomas & Yeisley family as well as other family and friends. She will be missed. God bless you Aunt Norma...I love you.
