My mother was the light of my life. She was a compassionate, caring person whose door was always open to anyone in need. She loved her family and was her happiest when surrounded by her loved ones. She was a gifted artist and baker. My home is blessed with her handmade quilts, wall hangings and holiday creations. She instilled in me the joy of laughter. She was open minded and extremely young at heart. I hope to follow her wonderful example of the perfect mom.

God be with you, my Cheyne Cousins. We were so lucky to have such wonderful mothers and aunts. You are my family and now my precious Aunt Imagene is gone. Remember the wonderful times we have had. Remember all the laughs we have had. Remember how we were the center of your mother and my mother's universe. Remember the trips we took, the songs we sang, the people we visited in Ft. Sumner and Carlsbad. Remember the love we share.
