Share your testimony.
My mother, Julienne Slaughter, passed away at the young age of 68 after twenty-two months with Lou Gehrig's Disease. Her name is synonymous with love, courage, compassion, selflessness, enthusiasm, dedication, testimony. I attempt each day to be more like her, but this is a daunting task because she is honestly one of a kind. I received the best compliment imaginable when, after taking a walk with my father last week, he stated, "You remind me most of your mother." I can't think of a greater honor.
