Dearest Diana, I am so sorry for the passing of your mom. My mom has told me of the news. I know that you were VERY close to your mom as I am mine. I know that you know she IS in a better place , a more peaceful place. Not that it really eases the pain for you as far as your everyday life goes and not having her there with you.
Love you Betty-Jo
However, just know that she is and always with be there with you at all times.
I also know that we never really got a chance to be close to each other growing up as our mothers didn’t really either, but that didn’t stop the love they had for each other or I for you. You will always be my cristening cousin
