My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you prepare to lay your mother to rest. She always seemed so happy and shared that happiness with everyone she met. I remember I could always count on a Christmas gift every year from Aunt Teresa and Uncle Fabian. I was fortunate to have such great godparents. My wish for you is that you find peace and comfort in the memories of having a wonderful mother.
