Heidi and family, We are so sorry to hear that you've all lost someone so precious to your family. I didn't really know your Mom well but the few times I was around her were enough to see that she had a lovely presence and spirit.
We will pray for all of you who are missing her now. Keep each other close by....it will help. Take care
