To have lost my precious mother is similar to a deep hole in my very being that cannot be filled. I initially felt that I would not be able to carry on without her or even want to. At the same time, I feel so very blessed that God called her home at a time when she could be spared from any devastating diseases and/or unrelenting pain. She was truly blessed to be able to just close her eyes without illness and fall asleep in the presence of her daughter, Janice and her professional caregivers. I am deeply grateful to our holy father that we had a mother who loved each one of us so very much. The sacrifices that she made to ensure that all our needs were met will never be forgotten especially our educational pursuits. My life would not be what it is today had it not, singlehandedly, been for Mother. I could share all my mistakes and deepest secrets with her and would always know that confidence would be kept. I know that she is resting in heaven with Mamo, Papa, Uncle Mancee and her beloved son-in-law John Butler. I love you Mother and miss you every single day. Ronnie
