Thank you for being here to pay your respects to mom. Thank you for your friendship and love that you gave her over the years.

My mom was a kind-hearted, compassionate and caring woman. She loved her friends and family more than anything in this world. My mom was such an outgoing person and as a result had numerous friends. She loved entertaining.

I am sad that my mom is gone, but I am happy to know that she lived such a long fulfilling life. While my mom is not here in the flesh, I know that she is here in spirit. My mom taught me so much and made me the person I am today. I know that her kind heart and spirit had the same impact on many of you here today. I know that my mom's spirit lives on in all of us. Mom, I love you and will miss you.
