Our mom lived her best life serving the Lord and her family. She was a dedicated wife to her late husband and mother to her children and grandchildren and great grandchildren. She had a warm personality and welcoming presence that you can’t escape being around her. Our mom enjoyed cooking in her prime years and what I mean by cooking, it’s whatever that comes to her mind. It can be spam, chicken, tomatoes, celery, pasta and potatoes all in one pot. We may not like it but we had no choice but to eat it. Don’t get me started with her Korean soap operas. She enjoyed her drama in subtitles. She loves taking care of her family and always helping the next person in need. Thank you Mom! Most of all, our mom instilled in her children and grandchildren strong Godly values that continue to serve us today. Mom, Mama Tata you will be missed and forever in our hearts. We love you until we meet again!
