I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother.
I remember her walking up the stairs with Andrew and Traci to my classroom at Lourdes every morning. She was so beautiful inside and out, and her quick smile and bright eyes started my day out in a good way.
When she bought the popcorn machine for your family, she was quick to provide the treats for our movies and parties, and
It was the best popcorn ever.
You were all lucky to have had her as your mother. I know you have love and good memories.
I am grateful to have known her.
My prayers are with you all during this difficult time.
