Mom I love you very much, I will miss you from here to eternity. We will always be M&M, you were and always will be my best friend. I rang a bell for you to get your wings, dad and I will be ok. We all miss you and we will always remember you, we will always remember you playing let it ride, and slot machines, telling me not to tell dad how much you had lost. You were and always will be my first best friend. I will always remember working together at Sola, going to Carrows and waiting to have steak and eggs after midnight during lent. You were a great mom, I love you and Anna Marie and will not do any funny stuff we promise! I love you mom!!!!

There are no words that can ease the pain of losing someones beloved. May you find comfort and peace in knowing that your loved one is in God's memory because those who passed are precious in his eyes. Psalms 116:5. You and your family have my deepest condolences.
