Dear Lorena, We were so saddened to hear about your Mom's passing. She was a very special and kind person and held a special place in the Mellinger family. The kids adore her! She was part of their lives from the time Rebecca was an infant. She will always be remembered by them as a lovely and caring person. She was a substitute grandmother when we were so far away! Your children were blessed to have her as their "real" grandmother, and you, to have as your Mother!! Our prayers are with you and your children, Shelly and Al
