    Mom NolaMae has always been a big part of my family. She always made sure to try to get me in line if mom was not around. She will be really missed. I am so sorry for your sorrow, but remember she is in a much better place, and with family and friends, I know mom is smiling. God grant you the strength to carry on in the next few weeks.. My prayers for you all.. Love to you all…Cindy.
