"No Regrets"

A daughter and granddaughter...
...a big sister...
...a professional musician...
...a Christian woman...
...a wife...
...a mother...
...a grandmother of 14, a/k/a "Mom-Mom"...
My mother, Catherine.
May 13, 1930 - December 18, 2007
She told my sister and I at our family Thanksgiving this year,
"If I die tomorrow, I have no regrets. I have lived a wonderful life."
I love you, Mom. See you in heaven.

We were very sorry to hear about your loss. You and your family are (and have been) in our prayers. It's good to hear that she was so at peace and happy. We love you guys.

What a wonderful tribute to your mom. I can certainly tell that she had a wonderful life. What a blessing and comfort for you and your loved ones to know that she is in heaven with our Lord. Ronnie and I have been and are continuing to pray for you and your family.

A beautiful tribute to your Mom. I did a double take on the first picture. She truly invested her life, faith and talents in you. We continue to pray for you and your family during this time.

She was a lovely person. I see her in you. There hasn't been a day that has gone by that I haven't thought of you and breathed a little prayer. We'll talk soon. (In spite of the arguments from me, God knew what He was doing when He moved ya'll up there nearer to your family!)
