Mom
Worked for the school district of Philadelphia until the day she found out she had cancer. Loved bears and woodland creatures. Love her two dogs gizmo and chewy. Collected teddy bears .

My mother worked hard her entire life. In the last few months of her life she faced the hardest job of her life , trying to survive and beat a horrible disease cancer. Although she lost her battle I know she fought hard only to stay here with us. She never gave up! Her body just couldn’t take it anymore. I miss her more than I ever imagined. Every part of my life is different now because there is a big void in my heart. Nothing and no one will ever fill that. I love you mom and thank you for the sacrifice you made and the pain you endured because you loved us with your entire heart. I love you
