My prayers and thoughts are with you. I will always remember your mother from Visitation High School (1949). I believe your Mom crowned the Blessed Mother on Mother's Day. She sure had a wonderful family and I know you'll all miss her, but now you have a Special Guardian Angel to solve your problems.
