Very sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Your mom and dad were both such very special people. My mom and dad (Bob and Shirley Humphreys) enjoyed living next to them and playing cards together and going out for dinner...they had a lot of fun and enjoyed your parents' company immensely. My daughter (Brooke) and I very much enjoyed their company, too. Your mom, and dad, are both very much missed....but I know they are together in Heaven now :)

To Marvas family, I was so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a quite spoken, sweet gentle lady. We talked a lot on the phone and we went to church together. She's back with Joe and I'm sure they are basking in the Joy's of Heaven.
