I´m so sorry to hear about your mother. I remember her bringing cupcakes to lone Pine school for the class. She was always doing things like that. I know you will miss her.
My thoughts and prayers are with y´all.

Mom Pratt was a kind and generous person who always put others first. May memories of her sustain her family and remind all of us of the power of selflessness.
