We were so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a dear lady! Will always remember her chauffeuring us to basketball games, great baking and many other memories while we were all growing up. Hope you take comfort in those memories as they are very happy ones! Take care, love and deepest sympathy to all.
