Please sign the guestbook below.
Thanks for all your support and condolences. Mom was a very caring and sweet mom. Mom always encouraged Karin and me to be ourselves, be true to who we are and not be anyone else or who others want us to be. She was never judging of others and always cared about everyone. She had a sweet caring heart that everyone could see how much she unconditionally loved. She gave Karin and me the gift of being true to who we are and the gift of Catholic school education, she wanted the best for both of us.
Mom was the best mom anyone could ever ask for and I know Karin and I are blessed to have her as an angel.
Mom passed peacefully with the company of her best friend Amy and her family. Mom held on until Amy came in from Hawaii to see her during her last moments. It truly shows how great a friendship they shared and how someone will hold on to see their best friend until they are ready to let go and be their Angel.
I am so happy and at peace with how mom was able to be surrounded with family and spend her last moments with her best friend by her side, no one could ask for a better more peaceful way to go to heaven.
Mom’s wishes were honored and she is going to help medical students at the University of Florida, where I am also going to be attending school. I truly believe that mom made it happen with the care and exceptional support of the funeral director Adam J. Plutchok whom I am so thankful and for all of the staff at Veterans funeral care.
I want to thank all of the Family for their support and the support of her close Friends, and the church, and especially the Veterans funeral home for making sure all the wishes are granted and mom is honored;it means so much. Words can not express how grateful I am.
Robin,You are greatly missed but we know that you are not in pain and that mom welcomed you home. We love you, your little sister, Patti
