Mom, you were such a strong woman, not afraid to express your opinions, you taught us right from wrong, how to do things the right way, as well as being loving, giving people. I was honored to be able to give back to you these last ten years, especially, to be there for you during your struggles of mind and body. I will miss you but am happy that you are with Dad, Ken and all the other family and friends. Watch over us, until it is our time to be with you again.
Love you Mom, Cheryl
