A Love Letter To My Mom
A woman thanks her mother for a lifetime of unconditional love.

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we asked Patch readers to write a love letter to that special someone and let us deliver it. This is Debbie Donnelly’s love letter to her mother:
"Happy Valentine’s Day to my mom. Thank you for all the love you have given to this family unconditionally throughout all these years for us to pass on to our own children, and for keeping us always together.
The greatest gift I've ever had was love from a mom who always forgave us and always put all the pieces back together again. Hopefully I can pass this family love to my kids, as it has touched me. I have never seen a mom give so much love. You will always have a special place in my heart forever.
