Our mom was truly a very special and unique person. She was not just a mom to us, she was a “Second Mom” to so many. Her employees were very special to her, she considered them part of her family. Even her customers were part of her extended family. She touched so many hearts through the years, she was a support system, a mentor, a teacher, and a friend. She opened her heart and home to anyone.
