30 yrs. ago when Chris and I got married I recall giving Mama Pat the ‘mother rose’ and she was crying. At the time I didn’t think much about it because I knew she would cry at our wedding, but now that I’m a mother of grown children I wonder what she was really thinking…You guys are too young, this will never work…you better not be out to get his $$ (ha) …you’re not worthy…But she supported us the entire time, as she did all of her children. And as time went on and our children came along, she supported us even more. I believe from the bottom of my heart that nothing was more important to her than her family. She gave her kids an awesome Step-father that she worshiped and he worshiped her. I owe her thanks for raising a man who turned out to be a wonderful husband and father. When Chris and I dated he would come to my house after work and call his mom. We teased him for being a ‘mama’s boy’ but my Mother always told me that the way he treated his own mother was a sign of how he would treat me. Of course she was right. So thank you, Mama Pat, for having a huge impact on my life. We will miss you and our lives will never be the same without you. I will strive to be as supportive, loving & open-minded Mother-in law as you have been, and will be forever grateful. love, dude

Denise… I am sooo sorry to hear about the passing of your mum-in-law. A passing of a mother is heart wrenching, and my heart and prayers goes out to you, Chris and family. The comfort is she is no longer in pain and is free from her earthly restraints. She will be sadly missed, yet you have beautiful memories…..
Dear Momma, Happy Valentines day, I miss you.
