RIP to an American right out of Norman Rockwell.

Will I join in the RIP, she wasn't exactly the Norman Rockwell archetype.

RIP. It's heartbreaking that she won't get to see the boy she raised into such an impressive man win the presidency tomorrow.

I went to the funeral today of a truly great lady, who had 5 children and worked her way up from going to a basically segregated school, to be a Licensed Practical Nurse.  Her numerous children, grand children, and great grand children were there.  I read Psalm 91 because she requested that I read it, when she preplanned her funeral.

While Mrs. Dunham had accomplishments, lets not get carried away.

What? Nothing I said was "getting carried away."

I think "raised into such an impressive man" is a bit much, since his mother and stepfather, not to mention Mr. Dunham, had a lot to do with that.

She wasn't the sole person to raise him, though perhaps the sole surviving person.
