Oh Lyds, I am so very sorry to read this. What a watershed moment for y'all. Would that we all could have had a mom like yours. I've been a bit envious of you on that score. How wonderful that she went so peacefully, like one final gift to those who loved her. How lucky she was that you were able to spend so much time with her.\
Love, Betty F.
 

I am so glad Sandra and I got to see your mom recently. She has given so many great moments and fun times. When I think of her I think of her smile and always being positive. Your photos of her with flowers are so fitting. I am also very glad to have seen those final paintings you got out of her! Thanks for the inspiring memories Martha!!
 

What a nice picture of your mom, Lydia. Whenever I think of you, I will be reminded of the gift of time you gave to your mom the past few months, and her tenacity to paint and create beauty in a time of pain.
