It was a blessing and an honor to have known your mother. She was a devoted neighbor and a loyal friend with a heart of gold.
My mother has lost a sister and she will forever remember your mother for the special relationship they forged over the decades by living next to each other. They shared delicious recipes , baked cookies together and she even taught my mother how to make homemade sausage.
We will forever cherish these special memories along with her beautiful and joyful spirit.
