So very sorry for the loss of your mom. Her tribute is wonderful. I’m sure you will all miss her terribly but do hope the happy memories are cherished, shared and remembered every day. Condolences to you all.
Extending my deepest sympathy and prayers to the family of Helen on the passing of your mom, grandma. She was indeed a very special lady who I enjoyed through the years. Her smile, kind heart, and faith were all things I so very much admired about her. In the days ahead I know my word won’t wipe away your tears, but please know you are being held in my heart and prayers.
