I'm very sorry to hear of your moms passing, she was a very sweet woman. I really enjoyed doing things with your family members, Dad, Mom, Max, Connie and others with the car club. I know that it had to be very hard for a parent to suffer so many losses, she is finally in all their arms, with love.
