This has been a particularly difficult time for me to have to watch your light go out here on Earth. I have nothing but love and admiration for your magnificence. You have achieved so much, and have struggled to meet every goal without looking back. I truly believe that it is the mark of greatness, to have touched and influenced the lives of so many. I delighted in watching your three sons dote over you as you so deserved. I was graciously invited and partook in many a meal which you so meticulously prepared with so much love that everyone would leave your table with such grins of satisfaction. I particularly loved to see you make a grand entrance and do that little dance and spin whenever you got dressed for an occasion which seemed like all the time because you always looked flawless and so thoughtfully put together. I must admit I too was pretty proud like your sons to walk into any place with you. I truly believe that I am a better person for having known you. May I say that the true testament to your greatness as a mother is alive and well in your three sons. You molded each one to be a compassionate gentleman. Your son Anthony has on many occasions called you a "Hero" and I could not agree more. You gave your all that they would not have to live without. You set them on their paths and they will continue to live your legacy with great pride and love for you in their hearts. You have done all for them and now you may rest in peace. May God embrace you with his infinite love and shower your sons with blessings. Yes your light may have slowly gone here on Earth but the light you have ignited in all of our hearts will shine eternally. God Bless You Hilda and again Thank you for everything Love Robert
