Through her eyes we saw and learned love; saw the embodiment of selflessness and sacrifice for others. Forever will her legacy of compassion and forbearance live on in the generations she gave birth to and never will we forget her strength and caring heart that she freely gave to each of us. She is missed and will be forever honored and loved by all who knew her.
