We all admire you for your courage, strength, love, compassion, and kindness. We loved how you showed it in your own special kind of way. You define and embody the real meaning of family. Never would you turn anyone away that needed help. Your door was always open to anyone and whoever stepped foot inside felt like they were at home. You are the glue to our family; a true matriarch. We will do everything in our power to keep everyone close just the way you wanted.
