Mom was quiet and unassuming. She was also very artistic. Most people never realized how talented she was because she was so quiet. She attended art school after High School and enjoyed designing and sewing dresses for me. She surprised me with the perfect dress to take my wedding photos in.
In life Mom and Dad did everything together. If Dad went fishing in the middle of the night, Mom was there helping him. I'm so happy they are together now. Mom also loved a good joke. I've heard her laughing hard enjoying a joke someone shared.
Mom's faith in Jesus Christ has been a great example for me in my life. During the last couple of years I would call and play hymns for her on the piano. She no longer remembered the words to the songs but she felt comforted by them. Those visits brought peace to both of us. She is the best mom I could have had.
