Our mother was a woman of deep love and quiet strength. She carried more than most people ever knew, yet she always made sure her family felt cared for in the ways she could. She was a mother first — protective, devoted, and proud of her children. Becoming a grandmother brought her a special kind of joy. Her love for her grandchildren was gentle, patient, and unconditional. She was resilient, determined, and stronger than she often gave herself credit for. Those who knew her understood that beneath everything, she had a heart that cared deeply. She will always be remembered for the love she gave and the way she held her family together in her own way.
Her daughters: Ashley Parks and Jessica Rodgers
