Our mother took her last breath after almost 3 years of relentlessly fighting cancer, which she did to the very end.
The day she passed she spoke to everyone who meant anything to her and said her goodbyes and "I love you's" like she knew that night would be her last.
She had spent the past 3 years making amends, finding closure, writing letters and making videos even when she felt horrible just to make sure when she was was gone we'd all be ok.
She spent the day she passed surrounded by loved ones, while we played some of her favorite music, kissed and hugged her.
As we watched her take her last breath that night, and the glimmer of light leave her eyes.
We also saw something we hadn't seen in years, a face that was free of pain.
And although our hearts and faith may be broken right now, I know with time they'll mend.
Our mother had the power to light up a room by just walking into it, her charismatic nature was envied by most and when she lived, she lived and when she loved, she loved.
She left this earth leaving a footprint on our hearts no one could ever fill the way she did.
Blessed to have been able call her our mother, best friend & Shira.
Love you more then life, we win.
