Shellie, I extend my deepest condolences to you and your family! In this most difficult time, know that your mother now rests in the bosom of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! "TO BE ABSENT FROM THE BODY IS TO BE PRESENT WITH THE LORD! I do not know your mom but I do know you to be an "outstanding" and "upscale" person, and as the saying goes, "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree!"
With heartfelt condolences,
Serina Y. Mitchell
