I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. She was a very quiet woman and also a very busy woman with her years of working at her store and all the activities that she was involved in. Keeping busy was probably her secret to her living to be 100. May she rest in peace!
Deepest sympathy for you Chuck, and your entire family. Your mom was a remarkable woman! And now she has met her final goal. Prayers for comfort and peace for you Chuck. You were a good and loving son.
