As Todd said (about his Grandmother)

“A very strong, caring, persistent, generous, loving, interesting, unique woman”

 

      

 

The following poem was lovingly penned by Mom’s second husband Bill MacKay and is in his handwriting. You’ll note this Love Poem is to ‘Phyllis’ as she was known at the time. She later changed her name to Moneca Caldwell (note: always MONECA with an ‘e’). The name was somewhat confusing for her twin sister and sons in law but not to son and daughters as she was known as MOM.
