    I am so sorry to hear you have lost your Mom. What a blessing it was to spend time with her. You honored her wish to be able to stay in her home. She would talk about missing your Daddy and seeing him again one day. To see her Savior and your Daddy is a wonderful blessing to her. Her prayer too was to see her entire family again one day. God bless the Porter family.
