Mimi and family.
I am saddened at the news of the passing of your wonderful mother. She was always so caring and motherly. It was clear that she loved her family very much. Your mom always had a amazing smile. I am comforted in the thought that she is now at peace with your dad. I will continue to keep you and your family in my prayers. Love Lisa
