Amy:

Words cant begin to express the good your mother shared thru OCF. She was a devoted and loyal memeber helping others even when she had her own problems. Minnie was one of the strongest women I have ever met. She helped me so much thru my first battle and we both had a recurrance about the same time this past spring. Minnie has been an inspiration to so many and we are all better people for being lucky enough to have known her. She was a very kind, generous, caring person who could never do enough for others and her family. She was a wonderful mother and passed on her best qualities to you and your sisters. In your sorrow, try to find comfort in your memories and know your mother is finally at peace without anymore pain.
