To my Luna family,
May the unending memories of your mom keep you filled with love, with peace and with continual joy. She was one of a kind and a true matriarch. I loved her like a second mom, as I love you all so very much. My heart is broken at the loss of Hope, but also incredibly grateful to have known her, and all of you, for the past 53 years.
