You have been a wonderful mother-in-law and a blessing to me, I so enjoyed making you laugh and all the times you gave me advice. My heart hurts missing you, it's not the same with out you picking movies to watch you would jokingly say "back at the movies again".
I miss you and love you until we meet again
