You were blessed with so many talents, so much appreciation for the beauty in this world, Mom. Little did you know that you were such a force in others' lives, so loved and now, so missed. I will love and treasure you forever. Your loving daughter Judy

We will miss your love as our Grandmother...from the heart shaped cookies on Valentines Day, the Chick Stick's on Easter to yelling out the door "Happy New Year!". We love you Mim. Give Bop a hug and kiss from all of us.
