THE FAIREST OF THEM ALL 

 A Eulogy To My Mother

Joanne Hull | February 25, 2014

Once upon a time there was a beautiful lady with platinum blonde hair, big green eyes, signature red nails, and a heart made of gold.

 She had the inner strength, grace and courage that most of us could only wish for.  She protected her loved ones with a loyalty as fierce as a lioness protecting her cubs.   Even in declining health, she taught them to stand tall and face any challenge that life has to offer with dignity, just as she had done throughout her life, with an uncompromising integrity that was awe inspiring.

My mother died last week.

 I watched her face death with courage and a stoic unwavering dignity that swelled me with pride.  She died on my birthday.  She hung on to be with me for my birthday.  

 I miss her already.  I will celebrate her life and carry her in my heart every day.

 To my beautiful Mother.  The fairest of them all.

 I Love You.
