Tribute to Mom Mary*
In so many ways, youve been there for me -
With some help or a smile or a little advice...
Youve made my days brighter,
Made my life better, and touched my heart
in so many unforgettable ways.
In so many ways that really matters.
You've been like a mother to me.
I Love You!
Torrey
