If unconditional love was a person it would be Alma. I never heard her say anything negatively about anyone. She was grace and love. She hugged and kissed us daily. She spoke with emphathy and gratitude. She was always concerned and involved in our maturation We didn't have alot of material objects. But she showered us with love. You could feel her essence and spirit. As a kid I always wished I had more material possessions.  After seeing the affect on people who had an absence of love, I am grateful to have had unconditional love. The world could be a better place if we all lived as my mother did.  There is no woman in the world that could take her place or mean as much to me. Thanks  Alma Rose Richard
