To our mother: We love you mother. We know God sent you to show us the best of the best. You had the biggest heart filled with love, patience, kindness, forgiveness, laughter, righteousness, hope and most of all helpfulness, helping as many as you could. You never made anyone feel less of themselves and always let them know that there was always a way to make it work. You were always hoofing it here and there for anyone that needed anything; food, money, help with the kids, or cleaning. Giving us the best life ever. Always remembered, forever and never forgotten.
