Mom,
You always told us how proud you were of us; but, the truth is without you, we never would have become the successful and blessed people that we are today. So, in truth, it's really we who are proud of you. Now, let God bless you and Dad with the eternal love and peace that you so richly deserve.

With all our love,

Jack and Tracy (your son and 'daughter')
