Saturday, family and friends gathered to take Mommo to Holy Sepulchre Cemetery where she would be interred in the family plot. At the visitation before going to the cemetery, guests were invited to share their memories and thoughts. Each of her nine children had a few words to say, and each had a slightly different perspective to share, providing all in all a very full recollection of her wonderful qualities.
Bringing the whole family together was Mommo's last but not final gift to us. I think and hope that underlying the words and prayers was a reminder to each of us to continue to love one another as she loved each and all of us.
