Saturday we held a second memorial service for my Mom
here in the Adirondacks...
It was an intimate, meaningful and personal service
conducted entirely by family.
Mom devoted her life to serving others.
She had a beautiful spirit.
She was loved by so many ...
... we miss her.

Very sweet, and what a wonderful photograph! I miss my sweet Mom too!
Such a happy photo of your Mom. I lost my Mom one year ago. Going through all the photos of her life is showing me what a great Mom I truly had. I'll be praying for your comfort.
I am so glad to hear that all went well. Thank you so much for sharing that absolutely beautiful photo--if that isn't 'joie de vivre' than I don't know what is!
Sending my best to you and hoping that all is well.
Oh my goodness. Just lovely. All of it.

It's so hard, when those we love are no longer with us. Thank goodness for the sweet memories that carry us through. What a beautiful legacy your mom left by "devoting her life to serving others," with "a beautiful spirit." No wonder she "was loved by many."
