I won the Mother-in-law lottery
I remember being nervous meeting my future mother-in-law. You know all the stories and bad jokes about new brides and their mother-in-law‘s. The moment I met Clarice I knew that I had won the mother-in-law lottery. She was the most welcoming, generous and loving mother-in-law I could ever have imagined.
I’m sure you all have heard the saying that someone was so generous they would give you the shirt off their back. Clarice was that generous and more. One day I commented on how pretty her new jeans jacket was and how much I liked it. Well, you can guess what happened the next time I visited. There was her new jeans jacket on the kitchen table all folded up ready for me to take home.
Her kind heart, generosity and beautiful spirit will be greatly missed but her memory will live one forever in our hearts.
