Honoring Mom

Mom’s memorial service was everything that we had prayed for.  It honored my mother, honored God and provided an opportunity for family and friends to reconnect and remember the special things about my Mother.

Daisies were my Mom’s favorite flower.

In the evening following the service family gathered at a restaurant in West Des Moines to spend time together and have a good time.  Just what my Mom and Dad would have enjoyed.
