Please accept my deepest sympathy. My memories of your Mom are always with a smile. I am sure, Kath, that you got your sense of humor from your Mom as she told stories of your family, looked at life with a bit of cynicism, and found amusement in the politics of the world. I will always remember her fondly. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you cope with this loss.
