Ruth and I were the two who were in wheelchairs at the CYAC dinners. Jay and Chris now have an angel to watch over them. For my parties, she would give me a stuffed animal. Now I will cherish those. Being that we were the only two in wheelchairs, sometimes she would give me a kiss. I’m going to miss her. Just because someone has lived a full life does not make their passing any easier. It was easy to see how much her sons cared for her, as anyone whose life she touched. I love you, Mrs Simon! <3 Katie
