With as much tragedy as she had, with both her husbands passing away and her two daughters, that woman's faith never faltered.

She has called your mothers, your aunts, your grandmothers, your daughters, your sons and husbands terrorists. This has to stop. It is the worst kind of McCarthyism. You cannot speak out in this country any more without being called a traitor. The highest form of patriotism is to speak out against policies that do not benefit the citizens of your country. This must stop. She owes an apology, if not a resignation.

She took in every stray, any person or animal. She wouldn't even blink an eye. She was someone you could go to.

She would cry over something like that. It broke her heart that something was out there, cold, and didn't have a home.

It was always about everybody else. Even when she was dying, she was concerned about everyone else.

She would say there's a reason for everything, and it made her stronger.
