Love Letter To Mom: Happy Mother's Day, Ruth Holtzman

FAIRFAX CITY, VA — She's the one that loved you first, but mom is much more than that. She’s a friend, a teacher, a counselor, a shoulder to cry on — and maybe one of the toughest women you’ve ever met.

We asked Patch readers in more than 1,000 communities to tell us what their moms mean to them. Nearly 200 people responded, paying tribute not just to moms but sometimes to grandmas, sisters and daughters who deserve recognition for Mother’s Day 2021.

Here’s what Wendy Golden of Fairfax, VA had to say about mom Ruth Holtzman of Fairfax City :

We love you mom because you always care and make everything better. You make the best chicken soup and give us the best hugs. When we can actually have fun without masks and we will have to take that cross-country train ride or go on a family cruise. Hugs and kisses from your #1 daughter
