Mom (Elsie) filled a huge hole left in my heart due to the passing of my own mother many years ago. Mom accepted me as a daughter, more than a daughter-in-law. That is just the way she was. More than all of that, she was my friend. We had fun just being together. Additionally, she raised my wonderful husband to be the kindest man I could ever imagine and taught him to be a GOOD man. I am grateful for that. I love you, Mom. The angels are rejoicing at your homecoming.
