My husband and I were very sorry to have learned of your mothers passing. She was a beautiful person and always so enjoyable to be around. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all at this time of sorrow. I worked with your mother at McDonalds and she was a pleasure to be around, she could always make me laugh and brighten my day.
