My sincerest appreciation for the condolences offered in this guest book for the passing of my mother.
She was just a wonderful person with a true zeal for life and learning.
-Kim
The image that comes first to mind is that of her smile and humor. She never lost her keen wit and loved humor. I fondly remember watching Monty Python with her every week!
She helped teach me how humor can be used not to avoid the pains of life but rather to endure and work through each hardship.
I have tried to live up to the example of grace she practiced; what a wonderful gift she left her family!
