She will work on any committee and gives of her time selflessly and freely. There were times when I wished she would say 'No' but in the end she has shown us that volunteering and generosity help to make the world a better place. <br />That is a pretty amazing legacy really!!Mhairihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401605359488793236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126317057339121070.post-9265605736036148322014-05-12T18:47:57.369-06:002014-05-12T18:47:57.369-06:00My mum was a caring person who had compassion for ...My mum was a caring person who had compassion for everyone in need - she loved animals and ciould not bare animal cruelty - her favourite charities were often animal related.<br />Pauline<br /><br /><br />perry94022@hotmail.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14462540973107234599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126317057339121070.post-55306356096843039502014-05-12T09:54:18.522-06:002014-05-12T09:54:18.522-06:00My mom has always been a very hard worker and that...My mom has always been a very hard worker and that is something I strive to be like as well.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02416966548835044422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126317057339121070.post-10316641035048980602014-05-12T08:57:40.289-06:002014-05-12T08:57:40.289-06:00My mother is a survivor.

Her mother, my grandmother, was told that my mother would be challenged and not able to walk or communicate. Grandma didn't believe it, raised my mother the same as her 2 brothers and sister. Mom grew up to become an LPN, marry and have me! My father died when I was 13 and Mom became both mother and father for a very rebellious teenager. She put me through Catholic school, even though she wasn't Catholic, because she had promised to do that. At her tallest, my mother was 4ft 8in tall. Now, because of osteoporosis, she's down to about 4ft 5in. I love her! I hope I can be more like her as I continue to grow older.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791592886458322904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126317057339121070.post-25423409491553245482014-05-12T08:23:42.912-06:002014-05-12T08:23:42.912-06:00Whaaat!

When it wasn't the norm, they decided what made the most sense for them was for Mom to go back to work and for Dad to stay home with my sister and I when we were little. It wasn't an easy road for either of them to travel which I understand now, but never saw when we were growing up because every event big or little, they were always there for us. I'm very proud of both of them.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06976460983943158975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4126317057339121070.post-34895554017732359842014-05-11T19:16:19.530-06:002014-05-11T19:16:19.530-06:00I'm one of 6 children and I feel our family fe...I'm one of 6 children and I feel our family feel apart when my Mom died 9 1/2 year ago.
