Dear Mom,
In life you taught us the values of faith, love, forgiveness, generosity, kindness, respect, grace, compassion, strength, dignity and the value of a good sense of humor. In facing death, and while making your final journey, you blessed us by modeling these very things. You will forever have our unending love and His amazing grace.
Until we meet again
Your loving family.
