I would like to say my mother was the last of 6 kids she was a strong women, of the six my mother was the only female and she has 2 brothers left. She was a strong woman and spoke about her mother, 2 other brothers Charles and Rudy her sister Clara and her uncles. My mother soon had 3 children of her own myself, my brother, and my sister. She took great care of her children and said that she loved the Lord and was truly blessed. She was a strong women that had a heart of gold, helping people and very caring…I use to ask where did I get it from now I know and I passed it on to my kids. My mother loved all of her kids so much. She truly raised us to be strong and love the Lord. I truly miss her and will continue to be the strong woman she raised me to be. I have a brother and sister who like our mom are strong and motivated to do great in life. She would want us to be very close and protect one another. She was a heavy believer of God bless you mom…..I love you.
