Mom died peacefully and calmly at 9:30pm pacific time on Monday May 20. I was holding mom’s hand and looked into her eyes as they were open and told her that I will carry her heart with me and she will always be with me. My dad talked to my mom, and my sweet cousins Brigitte and Danielle were with mom. I am amazed and feel so incredibly grateful to have experienced such beauty and grace as mom’s breathing slowed down and continued to do so until she quietly stopped. I held mom’s hand for an hour as we waited for Walker Family Funeral Services to arrive. My cousins joked that I was going to have to go with mom if I did not unclasp our hands. It was very hard to let go, and I did eventually. 


Love, 
Rhonda
