I´m so sorry your Mom/Grandmother passed away. She was an interesting person. Very passionate about life, her family, and dedication and faithfulness to Jehovah. She lived a full life, full of love. Now she´s in the safest place possible, Jehovah´s memory, awaiting a resurrection along with so many others. She will be missed. Sandra Lettich
