Mother meant more to me than anyone can ever imagine. It's hard to fathom the woman that brought me into this world, I held her hand as she left this world. I love and miss you daily.Julia

I miss my mother more than can be imagined. She was my strength, my rock. She was just tired, that's all.

I had the privilege of meeting Patricia many years ago. She was a positive role model for me and many women. There was always a place at her table for anyone and wonderful conversation. I will miss her dearly and wish comfort to her family
