Phillipi Family,
I had the pleasure of volunteering with your mother at the hospital gift shop when I was a junior volunteer. I have always remembered her infectious smile, her genuine interest in me and how great she always made me feel. I am mourning your loss with you. You remain in my thoughts and prayers!
