Her family gives thanks to God for blessing us with this life who was a guiding light and a true source of wisdom and unconditional love. Her legacy will be felt by many. Her earthly presence will be missed at family gatherings and holidays. In difficult times, we will be reminded of her prayers and words of encouragement.
