My mother was like no other. The purest of souls, if she had it, she gave it and if she didn't have it, she worked hard to get it. She only saw the good in people and in life and didn't focus on the negatives. She raised 11 kids and accepted anyone who needed a bonus mom. She was patient, kind, caring, loving, hard working, funny, strong and beautiful. Her stories were some of the best I've ever heard in my whole life. She was very animated in her story telling, that you felt like you were a part of whatever story she was telling. My mother never yelled at us, she never beat us, she only gave us love, protection, and guidance. She believed in me when I didn't even believe in myself. She was always my biggest supporter. I'm going to miss that beautiful smile with her chipmunk cheeks, miss her talking with a mouthful of food, miss her non-cursewords 😅 even after we were older. I'll miss her telling me how wonderful she thought I was. She was my angel on Earth, now she's my angel in Heaven. I love you mom, and until we see each other again, take care of John for me❤
