Was so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. I know it’s hard, but hope you find peace knowing that she is no longer suffering and has been made whole again. Her and Jr. were so close and he always spoke so highly of her – he loved his older sister! I know that they’re rejoicing in Heaven with all the angels watching over all of us until we meet again.
Love,
