Dear Mom, I'm so grateful for the way you raised Victoria and me. To the women who raised me, who was one of the most stubborn, independent, loving people I knew. Who taught me that no matter how much trouble I was in, we'd get through this together as a family. My mom showed me not to be afraid to be myself and to be a better person. Those relationships will have their ups and downs, but communicating and working through the tough times is very important. I know you'll always be with us, Mom, watching over Dad, Victoria, and me. We miss you more than words can explain, and I'm glad you're finally able to rest. I love you so much, Mom. Rest in peace.
