Lorraine & Family,
So sorry to hear about the passing of your mom. I remember her as such a sweet lady who always had a smile. She reminded me a lot of my mother--both being little french women who would keep their houses impeccably clean. Their families meant the world to them. May she rest in peace and may God be with all of you during this most difficult time. May the happy memories help keep her spirit alive. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
