To My Husband Tom,
You have lost the number one Love of your Life. I am the second Love of Your Life. Your Mother was just like a Mother to me. Perfect in every Way.Some Wifes arnt blessed with such a outstanding Mother Inlaws. Always giving me words of advice, Leanred alot about flowers.Your Mom was always smiling and she was always talking. I remember her little rubber bands on her wrist or a spoon on the table to remind her of something. She helped us when we lost our two Babys. And was the Best Grandmother and GG to our kids and Grandkids.I know you will miss her 3 times a day phone calls, and your visits together to check things out for her. Tom now Mom is in Heaven and will be with Dad to Celebrate his 90th Birthday on April 28th. We wont be able to Celebrate Moms 90 in August but she will be in our hearts. We are lucky to have had You Mom this long. Love you and I will always be here for you My LOve. Tonie
