My Mom

My Mother possessed a love and dedication for her children that was unmatched. Her dedication to us made sure we were always safe and had everything we needed. We were loved and cared for and it only cost her everything she had. She was immensely proud of all of us and gave us her strength and perseverance and through us, she will always live on.
