My Dearest Mother and Friend: Where do I begin? You were the light that guided me through life, through good times and bad. You always knew how to put things in perspective for me to make the right decisions along the way. I know you're in heaven with your loved ones where you longed to be. Just know that you were the best Mother I could have asked for and I will miss you always. Love, Marian
