Thinking of you always and visited your grave on your birthday. Missing you and wish you were here.
I miss you and I love you
She was kind and treated everyone with respect. Everyone loved her.
By treating everyone like they were special.
Kindness!
She made everyone feel special. People who had not seen her in years a!ways remembered her. She was like a bright light.
Her caring attitude. I tried very hard to be like her, but she was unique and special.
I am her oldest son.
My mother was the kindest most thoughtful person I have ever known. Anyone who got to know her, friends and acquaintances, would say the same thing. Both my wife Diane and I always got a card on our birthdays or a thankyou card or a get well card etc. Even when she was not well she always thought of others. She was a bright light in my world and that light will never go out.
She loved the ocean and lived only a short walk from the beach, as a young person, in Old Orchard Beach, Maine.
A strong willed, but friendly compassionate person. She always made the best of every situation and was kind to everyone.
