she was my first friend my best friend she didnt know it when she was alive but she did teach me things in your own way. She had her struggles but she showed me love, kindness she had a heart of gold. Mom always wanted more then me but she was told she couldn't have any more , but she loved her nieces and nephews like her own. She was like everyone's mom. I sure do miss her care packages is what i called them for all the holidays she would always make sure we had a gift or two to open. 30 years i had a wonderful mom who is truely missed alot.
