Your ...Oh Debbie, I don't know where to begin! Your Mom's service was beautiful right down to the last detail! There are so many things about your large family that reminds me of mine. Big family...big love!!! Your Mom was a stunning woman. I enjoyed seeing her photos from her childhood, to the twilight of her life. The styles!!! There are pictures of Diane, as a child, that look so much like her grands!!!! The quilt that her friends made in her memory...oh my! The displays of the things she loved to do....choked me up!!!! And her collections...the mice....did you know I collect mice too? I never, ever knew anyone else who collected them. My nickname is Mouse, and my Dad gave them to me. <br />Your Mom had a lot of love in her life. So fortunate. Your tribute to her was lovely. The slide show, so beautiful. I am so glad I got to see this post today. <br />My love to you.<br />KrisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.com
