Mom, It is hard to believe that it has been just over a year since you went home to Heaven. We love you and miss you so very much. Thank you for leading by example in all you did. I am truly blessed to have been able to call you Mom. Please give my Brendan a hug and kiss from me. Until we meet again in Heaven your memory, your smile and your laugh will remain in my heart.

If there was one constant during our softball playing days, it was knowing that Karen would be in the stands watching the girls play. :) Your family is in my thoughts.
Take care,
