In memory of my mother (1953 - 2011)

To those who knew my mother, knew her as a woman of immense courage and beauty. She knit many relationships, faced challenges undaunted and always spoke the truth. Her strength of character inspired me and many others. I have learnt courage and straightforwardness from her. I have lived with her guiding voice in my heart and continue do so. It is the only way of paying my respect to her and to say - 'Mom! I love you'
