Chris, I was so sorry to hear that your mom passed away. She was such a pleasure to talk to whenever I would see her at City Hall. Thoughts and prayers to help you navigate the world without your mom, it's a hard adjustment to make.

My sympathies to you Christine and to your family. Your Mom was an awesome person who played a role in my life as I was growing up - the time she spent with my Mom leading Camp Fire Girls. It was so much fun - and we girls benefited greatly from her leadership at that time.
Please know I am thinking of you at this time, and pray that you will be comforted by all the love and support of your family and friends.
