Nancy, I am so sorry for your lose. Having lost my own Mom a year ago, I know the pain that it brings, but I also know the joy of having her in the arms of Christ. You are a wonderful and loyal daughter and have special memories to cherish. You gave yourself to her care and dedicated to just loving her. May you find comfort in knowing that God is always with you. You will be in my prayers. Love Shari
