Dear Lovely Sandra- (and Kim & Scott)
I’m so sorry about your Mom’s passing. What a special Mom she was to raise so many wonderful children. She taught you well how to nurture, guide and raise children. Hold on to her spirit and the warm memories you have of her influence throughout your life. Peace and love, always!
