I understand the pain you are feeling and if there was a way to take it away, I would. I wish I had been blessed with the opportunity of knowing your mom personally, but from all the stories you have shared about her I know heaven just received one of the most special angels on earth. Laurie, you are a wonderful reflection of your mother not only the way you treat people with respect and empathy, but the way you make each person you come across feel cared for and loved. You are truly one of the most open and giving human beings I have ever met and you are truly the imprint of your mother. I know you must feel so alone on this journey of losing your mom. I want you to know that I am here for you whenever you need a hug. Please love yourself right now and don’t forget to be kind to your heart. God will handle the rest. I am here for you every day, for as long as you need me. “
“Such a wonderful person! She will be missed by many. Hugs & kisses to you all !”
