It is with great sadness that I inform you my beautiful, sweet Mother passed away this past Sunday. Like my father, she was part of the Greatest Generation...having lived through the Great Depression and WWII. She worked until she was 90 years old and only began to slow down due to the onset and ravages of Alzheimer's. Locked in my memory forever will be her sweet smile, kindness and compassion for the less fortunate. Mom led an amazing life with dignity and class...and was never a stranger to anyone. Actively involved with the Church, she was often known for delivering the weekly "Sunshine Report" ...which truly exemplified her personality. On first impression, people thought of her as the "Church lady", only to learn she had a spunky and playful sense of humor and could be a bit stubborn. She will be greatly missed. Heaven has gained a very special Angel.
In Lieu of Usual Remembrances, the family requests that donations be made, in Mrs. Proper's honor, to the American Alzheimer's Association (https://www.alz.org/)
