Mom loved gardening, so if you didn't find her at church you would likely find her tending to her plants. Our mother despite many difficulties in life, managed to perservere with her faith and love of Jesus.
Mom, you will be sorely missed but we are comforted in the fact that you have reached your heavenly reward. We love you mom!
