This is my mother. She is my biggest hero. She never gave up on me, always loved me, and was always there for me. She recently passed away (9/1/06), but I will never forget her. Anytime I need motivation i will just think of her, and the life she lived. I love you mom. BTW that is my niece Gracelyn. She always made her happy.
