Mom, all of your knowledge and wisdom, will be with me for the rest of my life. You , by yourself, taught me how to be a Man. I am so greatful for our long talks on the telephone, or our decision making over what to have for lunch. You were surely sent here from God, as no person on this earth could have all of the knowledge, compassion, and love for fellow man. I and my dear family were blessed by God to have you as a mother, grandmother and a great friend. You were the best friend that i could ever ask for! I thank God everyday, as i have done since i was a tot, that you are my Mom. God needs you with him now. You are the love of my life, and my heart is broken beyond repair. My dear Mother...Thank You! Love Ernie
