"I was blessed with 52 years of having the most
wonderful, loving and giving Mother that a daughter
could ever ask for. My Mother was diagnosed with
Rheumatoid Arthritis when she was 30 years old. After
10+ surgeries and surviving breast cancer , shergins
disease, and macular degenerate eye disease, She
always had a positive attitude that was amazing.

  She was diagnosed with Leukemia at the end of July.  
And she went to her home in Heaven on September
30,2008.

 I am posting  this on our web page in Honor of a Great
Lady. And to tell everyone to treasure your
parents...Give them a hug or a call...and a "I love
you"......After all,those moments are all you have left in
the end.  Memories!!!!"
