@pstut I am so sorry to learn of your mother’s death. She sounded like a very special and strong person. And you will always remember her as she was. I found this poem 20+ years ago and it really spoke to me:

In the rising of the sun, and it’s going down, we remember them;
In the blowing of the wind, and in the chill of winter, we remember them;
In the opening of buds and in the rebirth of spring, we remember them;
In the rustling of leaves and in the beauty of autumn, we remember them;
In the beginning of the year and when it ends, we remember them;
When we are weary and in need of strength, we remember them;
When we are lost and sick at heart, we remember them;
When we have joys we yearn to share, we remember them;
So long as we live, they too shall live, for they are now part of us,
As we remember them.
