Rest In Peace Mabel. It was my honor having coffee with you and knowing you.
Rest In Peace Aunt Mabel, I know Heavens gates were wide open for you. You were always such a sweet lady. Living further away I didn’t get to see you as much as I would have liked but I always enjoyed the time we were together. Tell Mom I said hello. I know she was there with open arms waiting for you. Love Karin
Mabel, you were so special.
I hope there will be lots of coffee in heaven. We know you will love that.
