Most people don't know that there are angels whose only job is to make sure you don't get too comfortable and fall asleep and miss your life.
-Brian Andreas, "Still Mostly True"
Our mom was an "angel" for so many people. She encouraged everyone to dream impossible dreams and managed to help you find that deep, inner strength to face life's challenges. Her philosophy was to live each day as if it were your last and to hold close your family at all times, even when distance and time separate you. She will be so missed, but we are eternally grateful to be able to share her life with so many friends and family.
Jane, Jan and Denise
