My mother only knew compassion. She told me all the way till the end, she's only complete when she's helping another. The greatest gift I could ever of had was being with her as her soul transcended. The love you spread goes further then anyone could of imagined. You gave all of us permission to be, and now we return this with our permission to rest. I love you so very much and I will always be your baby.
