Yesterday was my sister Amy's birthday. Today is my Mom's birthday. My Mom is not only a great grandmother (aka "Nana") but also a great Mother, Sister and wife. She somehow raised 4 kids as a working single mother without killing one of us or abusing alcohol or drugs (or at least hid it from us very well :-) ). Working night shift, evening shift, and day shift as a nurse at Tuomey with 4 kids must have been unreal but somehow she kept it all together. She attributes a lot to prayers, church and her large circle of brothers and sisters. She's a tough farm girl and taught me a great work ethic and set me on the path of salvation many years ago.
She is now enjoying her retirement from Tuomey but still is a nurse to Pete, her brothers, sisters, inlaws and extended family. She has a genuine concern for others and will let you know about it too! We love her for your many acts of service and support. So, here's to you Mom on your last birthday in the 60's! You look great and we hope you have many more to celebrate in the future. I owe a great deal to you and hope that we always make you proud.
With Love, your Son
