Wow those younger pictures of your mom really look a lot like you! Those are all such great pictures.....I can't believe how much taller she was than her brother! I love your mom!
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting so many family pictures. There a lot of them that I and my kids haven't seen. My favorite is least look a-like twin picture.
ReplyDeleteLove all the old photos!
ReplyDeleteTHose photos are great. You are so good at the birthday thing.
ReplyDeleteBeth,
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your moms passing. My dad came up to hunt his elk here in Idaho and he brought me up to speed on her conditions. I will inform him today about the news.
Beth, your mom was one of the standards in my life. I will post a picture on Facebook I have with her at our Seminary graduation. Interestingly enough, I had only been a member of the church for a year and a half when that picture was taken.
I'm grateful to have known your mom and I'm gratefulmfor the gospel that helps us understand the meaning of life and bouys us during the difficult times in life. May the Lord bless you all.
Love,
Ralph Perez
