A lovely eulogy Margie. Your mother sounds like my grandmother (who had 8 children of her own) -

My thoughts are with you.

Lovely words spoken from your heart and most of all lovely smiles on your faces because death of a person who loved and was loved in a full complete life should be a celebration!Ariadne from Greece!

Margie, thank you for sharing the beautiful words you wrote for your mom. Her life is a real inspiration. And thank you for sharing her view of what a funeral should be--I agree, and I'm so glad that you were able to fulfill her wishes.

My dear friend,
After a very intense time over here with my family from Florida I came to visit you (I have had you and your Mom in my mind for all this time) and I found this beautiful, touching and deep memorial. I always knew that you and your beautiful family were going to give your Mom the gift of a "good funeral" as you said. Full of love and celebration for her remarkable life.
I have come to appreciate my Mom even more in the last week (she had some health scare during out trip to the mountains) Reading your words here makes me realize how lucky we are to have special Mothers that have left a deep mark in our lives.

I still remember the picture of your Mom wearing the pink bunny ears, that's how I see her, with a big smile, those sparkly eyes and pink bunny ears. Whenever she comes to visit you in your dreams please say hi to her for me. She has a special place in my heart even though we never met in person.

I send you a big hug!
And all my love!
Elsi :)
