Dear Diana- My condolences. Your Mom fought the good fight. She refused to give in because she had more to give- as a Mother and Grandmother. It’s been many years but my best memories of your Mom were when she was being Grandma. A great laugh with spirit and full of energy. I know she will be missed, but also know that she is at rest. Love to you and the family, KGF
My condolences. This is a difficult time for all of you.
She will always be missed by her lovely family.
Thinking of you all and remembering your Mom in my prayers.
