I am so sorry for your loss as I know how difficult it is to lose a mother and loved one. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Forgive me but I must ask because your mom's picture is virtually identical my mother who also passed. I was wondering if you are related to any Roles,Shope or Wagner from Altoona PA or Saltillo Pa or area. I would enjoy connecting with relatives. Email [email protected] phone is 6072422294. I do have some family history written down. Again, I am so sorry for your loss. May God continue to comfort you during this difficult time.
