I have fond memories of Pauline as a sweet young girl. We were bridesmaids together for her cousin Marilyn, a life long friend of mine. I experienced some of their Scottish traditions and enjoyed a close relationship to the Fergus clan. Family was close knit and strong. You are in my thoughts and prayers as you grieve the loss of a loving mother.

This is so beautiful. It reminds me so much of my own mother and our relationship. My Scottish ancestry is much further removed, as my 4th great-grandfather arrived in America in the 1750's. But that heritage still calls to me in an odd way. Blessings to you and your family.
