Dear Pam, Paul,Peter and Bob,
I have so many wonderful memories of your Mom. I was blessed to have her as my aunt and godmother. Heaven was blessed on Sunday because they received a remarkable woman and her Homecoming must have been spectacular.
May your cherished memories bring you comfort through the Christmas season.
She is now at peace.
God Bless,
Love,
Debbie
