To Bobby, Brenda, Linda and families:
I am certainly sorry for the loss of your mother. I loved her like a second mom. I am so thankful she got to live a life full of grand kids and even beautiful great grand babies! And I’m sure she touched an infinite number of people while working her mall kiosk. I don’t think I could have walked past her without buying something.
I am so grateful my life intersected with hers in several ways. Not only did we live in the same house (sorry for the messages left on the walls), but she was my favorite substitute teacher and like a second mom. She probably wondered if I ever really moved out of the house. Hopefully she realized what a positive influence I was on Bobby. Or not.
I know you guys are all hurting. But please know how lucky you are to have had her as your mom. Thank you for sharing her with us.
