Mom, it will always be with me all the great sayings meant to be inspirational or give strength that you passed on from our great grandmother, Lizzie Tighe, such as "God fits the back for the burden." Growing up and going through the expected trials and tribulations of life, you always instilled the importance of remaining strong and "staying positive because things are never as bad as you think" or "there is a silver lining to every cloud." I will always remember the Irish sayings that you and Nan loved to declare (particularly around St Patrick's Day) such as, "May you be in heaven half an hour before the devil knows your dead." Thank you Mom for always being there and for your unconditional love and support. You will always be remembered and loved.
