I would like to write several eloquent paragraphs as many here have done so well but I will simply say what comes to my mind today as I mourn her death and and think about her legacy here.

The love for her family was so apparent each time she "talked" to us here. She always seemed more worried about them than herself and her illness.

She had so much common sense. Her replys to everyone cut to the chase and I loved that.

I am devastated that she is gone and I will miss her. I will pray that your family, Amy..your dad and all your siblings find strength and love and peace in the coming days and months.

Minnie, God's speed!

Deb
