It took a strong person to get through the pain she had as a girl. It took a determined person to raise her kids by herself after Walt died. It took a joyful person to live and explore on her own after her family was raised. And it took a loving person to endure what she went through and keep her wonderful sense of humor. Trish loved her family and her friends and she loved her God. Now she and Walt are square dancing together in heaven. May the memories of the good times together help you through the hard times. And may your mother's spirit and strength sustain you forever.
