Mom, your constant selflessness taught me compassion, giving, and love for others. Your loyalty and seeking of truth taught me honesty and reliability in what it means to be family. Your belief in God taught me to have faith. The family and I will forever miss you. The many memories of you will make me smile forever. God Bless you.
