Tribute: Barbara Jean Wilcox Goodale
Three years ago today, my mom, and oldest child of Morris and Cora Wilcox, passed away. I wish you all could have known her; she was (and still is!!!) a great woman! I have posted a brief tribute to mom on my blog (click to read).
John - thank you so much for sharing this with all of us. I think about mortality often, especially on days like today with my father having surgery. I know the struggles that your mom faced and she raised 4 really wonderful, committed, compassionate children dedicated to the gospel and she did it by herself. But the legacy that she left us was that she did it with the help our Heavenly Father - something we should all emulate every day of our lives. Lydia

Thanks, Lydia. I hope your father is doing well. I know we all look forward to updates.
