Please accept our heartfelt sympathy for the loss of your mother. I know it is a very difficult journey to be on, but I know that she will aways be with you in your heart. I know she knew the Lord as her savior, and he will care for her. Try to not let your heart be too sad, as that is not what any mother wants. Take care and keep her memory with you always. Love, The Wehlages
