Sue,
So sorry to hear of the passing of your mom (and dad). I think of you often and have good memories of our school days. Your parents were always so nice to me when I'd visit or spend the night or weekend (many years ago) ... and I'll never forget staying for dinner at your house one time when we were in grade school and your mom talked me into trying liver and turnips for the very first time in my life! I actually liked them!
Treasure your memories ... you've been very blessed to have had your mom all these years.
Take care, you're in my prayers!
