I am and will forever be my mothers’s daughter. Thank you, mom for your love, wisdom and endless support. I will miss my mommy. I will miss picking up the phone and hearing your voice when I ask you a cooking question, hearing about your day or what you had for dinner, and most importantly… your annual birthday song. The main branch of our family tree may have fallen, but you have left several branches of your legacy. Ich liebe dich, Mutter! 💗 Lorraine (Little One).
