This year, we're celebrating Mother's Day a little differently. While I won't be able to see my mom today as she lives in an assisted living facility, we'll instead be FaceTiming and reminiscing about fond memories.
My mom is someone I've always looked up to. She was a nurse's aide and an SEIU steward who organized her workplace for the betterment of her family and colleagues. Mom worked tirelessly to provide for me and my two sisters -- and along the way, she instilled in me the importance of determination, fairness and integrity.
I also have another mother to be thankful for -- my wife, Colleen. My closest advisor and my best friend, she has the biggest heart of anyone I know and I'm so lucky to have raised some pretty fantastic kids together.
I know I couldn't have gotten where I am today without the love, support and wisdom of my extraordinary mother and my amazing wife.
In these trying times, when we're reminded of the loved ones we have around us, I'm extremely appreciative to have these two incredible women in my life. So today, I'm wishing you, your family and whomever you might call a mother the best and hope today is filled with joyful laughter, love and gratitude.
So to all the mothers today, Happy Mother's Day.
Gary
