Family was everything to our mom. She was a pillar of strength for all of us and our friends.

All of us who loved her and have been loved by her, consider ourselves the luckiest people in the world.

We will miss you for eternity. Your spirit and light will live forever within us. Thank you for bringing us endless joy. We love you so so much.
