Deb, Jack and family, we were so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. The Lord was busy at work with so many Angels the last few months. May somehow your hearts find peace and comfort I. Time. I hope Christmas is gentle on the family as it will be A Different Christmas for many of us! Sending hugs and love!
