My sympathy to you -- I have so many great memories of your Mother when living next door to my grandparents (Menskies - 626) -- we had such a great childhood and that was because your mother loved children and loved to entertain. The door to your home and the door to my grandparents were always open and each was ready to assist in any way when needed.
Oh! Those wonderful birthday parties she hosted for the neighborhood girls, of which I was included, even though I lived in the community of Gresham, I was at my grandparents most summer days and many after school days. I was blessed.
Although the past few years were not the best quality for your mother -- God knew that he was not quite ready for her until Thursday. God bless your mother for the great life she lived and shared for so many years.
My love to all of you with continued prayers.
