I’m so very very sad. She was the greatest mother. She will be missed. Brings tears to my eyes, wish I had gotten to see her before this. To me, she was the mother I never had. I was and still am like one of the family, love them all. Now she’s with her husband, Willy. He also was family to me. Tammy my very best friend. Maria, my prayers are with you all. Love and miss you all always and forever. I am also very grateful I got the chance to know two of her sons, Shawn and James, love you too.
