God truly blessed me and my family with a wonderful mother for ninety-seven years! 

This beautiful soul selflessly gave us unconditional love through constant acts of kindness, devotion and humanity.  She instilled in us all the core values of life such as empathy, self-pride, assertiveness, creativity, knowledge, family love, honesty, courage, and creativity.  These core values became lessons for living.

Her kind smile, her spunkiness, her patience, her laughter, and her nurturing disposition will forever be etched in our memories.  

She was like a bright yellow rose emanating beauty and love to those lucky enough to have met her.  No wonder her favorite flowers were yellow roses! 

God truly blessed me and my family with a wonderful mother for ninety-seven years!  

Thank you my Lord.
