Sharon and Vickie,
My heart is so sad for you right now, but so Happy for your Mom. I can imagine her dancing and laughing in the presence of God and her heavenly family.
Your mom was so special to me. I truely love her! Often in my job I have people who feel more like family than clients, and your mom was one of them. I looked forward to seeing her each week and will miss her so much. She was truely a blessing to me and so many others.
Please know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers, today and in the days to come. Heaven gained another star to shine down upon this earth. So look Heavenly, that brightest star will be hers!
Love you guys.
