Chris, Liz & family, I loved your mother. She was always kind and smiling. She was always so gracious and nice. When I would see her, I could not help myself to run up on her and ask how you and she and you were doing. I could chat with her as if we had talked yesterday, when in fact it had been years. She will forever be a model of what women were striving for. She is a legacy!!!

I am a friend of Chris's from high school and also from the out and about crowd of music lovers. My father also graduated from CV high school, and I am a member of the church in CV, although have not attended services for some time. Was nice for me to see this connection. I am so sorry for your loss, I know how hard it is to lose a parent as I lost my dad in 1991, I still

You can only have one mother
Patient kind and true;
No other friend in all the world,
Will be the same to you.

When other friends forsake you,
To mother you will return,
For all her loving kindness,
She asks nothing in return.

As we look upon her picture,
Sweet memories we recall,
Of a face so full of sunshine,
And a smile for one and all.

Sweet Jesus, take this message,
To your dear mother up above;
Tell her how we miss her,
And give her all our love.

- Irish Funeral Prayer

She was a very sweet lady whom was well respected in the community!
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family:(
