Mom LOVED a good mystery, relishing such programs such as Dateline and 48 Hours. She would discuss these real-life dramas in great detail. Mom also loved to watch the Alfred Hitchcock Presents mysteries. We watched these programs together remarking on the theme and lessons learned from each show. And oh boy! What about American Idol, Dancing With the Stars, and her favorite, Saturday Night Live?? Her love of music reflected her admiration for talent: She enjoyed a bit of Eminem, Jay Z, and Cold Play, among others. Mom also liked J-Lo and admired Angelina Jolie very much. Her fashion? Please, dear. Mom's sense of style and fashion remain unmatched by anyone I know--she is a tough act to follow! I miss her very much; my life will never be the same.
