My sincerest condolences to the Dunn and Dobson families on your mom/ grandmother's passing. I have very fond memories of your family and she was a big part of them. She always had a big hello and a kind word whenever she saw me at Knoebel's and would always brag about her grandkids and great grandkids. She was just a warm and wonderful person.
