Your mom was a great woman who I loved and respected with all my heart! I have very fond memories of her and will never forget her and the times that we shared working together and events we attended together! She was one a of a kind. Someone that I looked up to. She told me something one day when I was in training (12 years ago) that I will never forget and think about more often than not still to this day. So very sorry for all of you as I know this is the hardest time ever and words can not express my condolences!
