Karen, Gene & family,
My heart breaks for you. There is just something about losing your mama. I remember her always greeting me with a smile and asking if there’s anything I wanted as I walked in the door. I don’t think I even knocked very many times! She welcomed me with open arms. You family will be in my prayers as you adjust to life without her.
