My mom’s Celebration of Life was today at Robert’s Funeral Home. It went beautifully! A big shout out to Colby who (or whom, I never could get those two right LOL!) was the most patient, passionate, courteous, and helpful person I have ever met! He was respectful and considerate to all of my immediate family and our guests! Colby, you have a gift! God bless you!
I also want to thank the Police Officer who led the funeral procession that I have the utmost respect for you and every officer who (and that whom thing again!) that does that job! Please be safe and God Bless You!
One of my mom’s favorite stories was about her family doctor, who always told her “Pat you can get so sick and always come up smelling like roses”! She loved telling that story! She loved that Doctor! Mom told me on Sunday, May 4th, that “she didn’t have any roses left” and I knew. All my brothers and sisters and sister in law came to see Mom; She waited until her sisters, Aunt Jeanne and Aunt Colleen came on Monday and she passed peacefully. She said she was ready. Mom, I love you and I always will….
