Mom, I will always remember you smiling and reaching out for a hug. I will always remember all the little songs you'd make up (sometimes because you didn't know the words, but that's OK!) I will always remember that you tried to make holidays beautiful, and your Christmas traditions are now ours. I'll always remember the special trip to the store and the Twinkie you bought me (nothing for yourself) when Eileen went off to her first day of school, and we were alone together for the first time at home (not for long... welcome Maureen!). That was such a treat. I will always remember your joy at seeing your grandchildren. So many memories: Mom, I will remember you with Love, always.
