Thank you, Mary, my Beloved Mother-In-Law, for all the Roast Beast dinners. For teaching me how to make Yorkshire Pudding. Thank you for teaching me how to make a proper pot of English tea. Thank you for all the times we spent together. Even though I know you wished I'd been a better choice for your son. You gave me a painting, and a cake plate you'd made yourself. I still have them. Your home made cakes were SO delicious, and decorated SO prettily. You were the best Mom ever. I always wanted to be just like you. Maybe now you know how much I loved you,. and admired you. And how privileged I feel to have met you, and Sid. And to have been a part of your family. Those times spent with you were the best times of my life. Thank you for all the memories, Mary. I just want to say, thank you for everything. Sharalyn
