Your mom was my son´s 3rd grade teacher when he first started in public school. Such an amazing woman. She even came to see my son dance at his yearly recital. I ran into her in the jewel just a few months before her passing and she seemed as spunky as ever. So sorry for your loss.

You all have my deepest sympathy. She loved her family above everything. I was so fortunate to call her my friend. She was a special person who was loved by all. I will miss my friend as much as you will miss your mother, nana, and great nana.
