When our Lord came to our mothers hospital room on February 5th , 2011 , He whispered to her , “ Take My hand My child . Fear not , I have chosen you to join me . I have a great resting place for you . Your work on Earth has come to an end . A new life is about to begin .”
Mom , you gave so much of yourself . You sacrificed so much in order for the three of us to have a better life , no matter what obstacles you were faced with . Thank you for believing in us .
Sadly missed by your three loving kids , Barb , Freddie , and Ray
