Nola, Dan and family - I am so sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful mom, mother in law and grandmom to your children and if nothing else, you can be thankful that you had soooooooo many wonderful years with her. What good memories you must have and to think that she was up and about only 2 weeks ago. Both of us have lost our parents at a much earlier age.....so she was such a blessing to have. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time and only wish that we could be there as well.....
