Kathy, I just saw that your Mom passed away and the service is already over. I am so sorry to hear that but I know we will see her again. You will be in my prayers during these difficult days and those to come. I worked with her at Equifax in case you don't remember me. That was many years ago. Even though we haven't been in touch lately, I will always remember her and her kind ways.
