My husband and I are so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. We lived a few houses south of your mom and just now found out she passed away. We used to see her walking and would stop and chat with her. She was so sweet and would always ask how we were doing. She always told us we have to keep up with walking...'just keep moving'. She will be missed. Our deepest condolences to her entire family.
