Mother leaves to us something that cannot be divided among ourselves?something that can be received by each one of us in full measure?her legacy of faith and her love for our Heavenly Father. She taught us: ?Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.? Philippians 4:8. Precious Mother, we will always love you.
