He asked if he could speak at her memorial service and gave the most beautiful tribute. He told the story of the boxing shoes. He said that he had succeeded because of my mother's unconditional love and her sincere interest not just in his education but also in his life.
He also brought me a beautiful potted hydrangea. Staked in the soil were his boxing shoes and his report card from that school year.
Cheers to your Mom.
