Remembering My "Second Mom" on Mother’s Day
On Mother's Day, I Did the Revlon Run/Walk for Women to Honor My "Second Mom", Rhoda Goldie
She lost her battle with cancer on February 4, 2010. The photo on the left is of me at the Revlon Run/Walk. The photo on the right is Rhoda in the 1980s.
Rhoda is my best friend Sheryl's mom. I met her when I was only 13 years old and we both fell in love with each other. She taught me about kindness, hard work, loyalty and compassion. When I wanted to start my Wealthy Bag Lady business, do Women's Small Business Expo and write my book, Bags to Riches, she supported me totally.
I even interviewed her for the book about employee relationships because she inspired the best in people and kept employees loyal to her for over 20 years.
Celebrate Someone Special This Mother's Day
Mothering comes in all forms: friends, teachers, family members and mentors. I've been so blessed in my life to have 2 great moms and I know that Rhoda is still lovingly watching over me. Think of the women in your life who have nurtured you and celebrate them on this very special Mother's Day.
