I'm so sorry to hear that she has passed on. I know that she loved her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren very much.
May you all find comfort in knowing that you won't be going through this alone. Lift each other up, and lean on each other. Whenever a butterfly lands on you...whisper her name.
