I wish I could express the sorrow I feel for the loss of your Mom. Moms are such important people in our lives. She feeds us, teaches us, loves us unconditional, spends time with us. When she leaves us, she lives through us. Aunty Mable's legacy is the values and lessons that she taught you and you have passed on to your children and grandchildren. She will be missed by all of us that knew and loved her.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Auntie Mable was such a great person, and some of my fondest childhood memories are spending time at your house. It was always such fun. As we got older she always had a cup of coffee ready, and I will always remember her laugh! My thoughts and prayers are with you as you mourn the loss of a wonderful lady.
