January 5, 2019 at 1:39 amI’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your wife and mother. Some of my favorite childhood memories are of backyard cookouts at her house with a table filled with her amazing cooking or wearing a beautiful outfit made overnight by the talented seamstress. She will be missed.
