The family mourns her passing. A passage from The Book of Proverbs expresses our regard for our matriarch. "Who can find a virtuous woman, for her price is far above rubies?"…She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and the law of kindness is on her tongue. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idelness. Her children rise up and call her blessed…"
