Tribute to my Mom

Today is my mother’s Birthday. She passed 15 years ago and it seems like yesterday. I still miss her dearly and I bet I always will.

My mother was older than most of my friends’ mothers, but I have to say she was the most forward moving and hip.

She had her own flair and sense of style. She was a beautiful woman who would open her home to all and that was what I loved the most about her. Our house was always bustling with family and friends.

She was not a demonstrative person yet I always felt loved. You could say she may have been a bit unconventional and independent for her time. Whatever that may mean to anyone. We all have our own perspective. She was very family oriented with family values at the forefront.

She also held nothing back and voiced her opinion. She gave me the thick skin I now live in. I thank you mom for teaching me a few things along the way.

I hope you’re dancing your heart out with dad and Dee. I know you and Dee are tripping to light fantastic. Miss you.
