Mom was everyone's best friend. She made everyone feel important and instantly loved. She included everyone and couldn't stand to see anyone left out. She was a counselor to everyone and knew how to listen and love. She loved a good prank and had an amazing sense of humor. She jumped into any water fight that was started around her. Together, Mom and Dad were members of the Good Sam Club, and had many wonderful friends.
