You gave everything for us and never asked for anything in return. I wish I could have " hugged you one more time or taken out to eat just once more. I'm glad that you are finally at peace and are getting your well deserved rest. I love you mom and miss you so much. Mark Durick - November 21, 2011 at 04:54 PM
