ReplyDeleteYou may have gone home to your maker but you won't be forgotten by those still here. WE will always love you and will miss you dearly. On a personal note, I couldn't have asked for a loving and kind mother-in-law, she was always there for me and always made me feel like one of her own. I will treasure all those memories.
