A wife, a mother, a grandma too, this is the legacy we have from you. You taught us love and how to fight, you gave us strength, you gave us might. A stronger willed person would be hard to find. And in your heart you were always kind. You fought for us all in one way or another. Not just as a wife, not just as a mother, for all of us you gave your best. Your smile could light up a room, your laughter was contagious. You loved the outdoors, camping and soaking is where you found peace. We all knew we could find you in your garden planting flowers, that’s one thing you loved to do. Every time from here on out when we see a hummingbird hovering over us or see a red rose in full bloom or a hibiscus blooming in the summer we will think of you and know you are near us. “May God hold us in His hands and may our hands hold each other forever"
