Not sure what to say?

Miss you Mom

Still think of you, my dear friend.

To this day, I remember my dear friend of so many years. We shared so much.

She is missed. She was a special friend of 64 years.

From the very first time we met in Junior High School, you took care of me. When I spent Saturday nights at your home, I ate bagels and lox for breakfast that you fixed and walked to church. So glad we had time together in December 2015 and that we told each other "love you" in many emails.

I Couldn't have had a more awesome, fun, kind, careing and funny grandma. I will miss her calls, her hugs, and her physical presence, but she will be with us always.

The most amazing and loving grandmother anyone could ever hope or ask for. She always went above and beyond to make you feel special. Coming over to her house every time I was in town was always the highlight of my trips! I will miss her warmth, her love, and her extra special hugs.

Mom..I love you. You will always be in my heart forever! You will live on..forever in our memories. You are my world, part of my soul. A Mother who taught me everything....to be loving, caring, accepting, selfless, kind, and funny. I'm always working on being more like you! Your grandchildren all miss you greatly, and your legacy will live on with all of your children and grandchildren. Our hearts are heavy, but are lifted by the many people who loved you and were touched by you. Thank you...

My only regret is to not have known you sooner, so I may have loved you longer! Your impact on so many people is too profound to put into simple words.

Your love was tangible. You could feel it, touch it and we always knew it! So many people were touched by your unconditional love.

You were a true original! A firecracker and had more spunk than thought possible.

Besides your amazing accomplishments as a Real Estate Broker or as the General Business Manager...
