She met our dad at the end of WWII where he was a soldier serving in Germany. They moved to the U.S. and had 6 children, many grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was a wonderful mother and made life very interesting with her not so ordinary personality. We are so blessed to have her as a mother. Everyone who knew mom would agree that God broke the mold after creating her. Never a dull moment. We all loved to hear her talk about her childhood and the way they survived during WWII.
We know our mother (Little Mama) is united again with our dad. Her faith in God was inspiring and is a solid foundation for all of us. In Jesus name we are thankful.
