A Mothers Love - No gift on earth is greater, no treasure held above, the joy that comes from knowing a mother´s endless love. In spite of how it´s tested it grows from year to years, providing strength and comfort ... it gently draws us near. It warms and it protects us, and guides us from afar. shedding light upon us, like a bright and shining star. And when all things are measured, not one shall rise above, or be compared in value, to a mother´s endless love. I Love You With All Of My Heart Mom / Forever and Always Your Daughter DeAnn or (Dee) - Thinking of you always and Missing you Much.

Jay and Doris,
You both took such good care of her. She now knows everyone again, no confusion and no pain. Maybe she fly with the butterflies and watch over her children and grandchildren. I keep you both and all of the family in my prayers. I love you both and here if you need anything.
