Mom,
You were the truest, dearest, and more than a mother to me. You did not have much but we always felt like we had everything. You were a precious gift from God. You touched my life in so many ways. I do not know how I will do life without you.
You saw the beauty in everything and you taught me to have joy for life and the simple things it brings.
You will always be missed, forever loved, and never forgotten!
