My mom and I are so sorry for your loss. Your mom was my second mom growing up and I loved both your parents very much. It is an honor to be a part of this family and I cherish every minute of eating at your mom's kitchen table, all the sleep overs (just what your mom needed, another kid around) lol, just spending so much time there. Alberta was a beautiful, loving, special woman and she will be truly missed.
