This is a Remembrance Sampler for my Mom who passed away recently. Our family and friends held an informal Memorial at our beach house in Cayucos, CA...it was her favorite place on Earth...All of the words in Gold were expressed by her Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren as what they thought of most when they thought of her...Bittersweet for sure...this was taken before I mounted and framed the sampler...I forgot to take a picture after it was finished...I will have to ask my Dad to take one and send it as he has it now...She was a cancer survivor for 35 years before she finally lost the fight...she would have been 90 this year and will be missed by all...

Well Kim I now know where you inherited your personality. She had to have been a wonderful,wonderful person. I'm sorry you lost her.. My mother is buried in Redding, CA. There is no family left out there at all. You have done a fabulous job with this. She would have loved it/Lillian

I can feel your and the pain of the family very well. It's always too soon when the parents die and thus missing an important part of the family. You have embroidered a very nice memory image.
