You asked for letters about special mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers and aunts. My mom fits into each of those categories plus some. On tope of all those already amazing roles, she is also a daughter, sister, friend, teacher, Sunday School and youth group leader and one of the strongest prayer warriors I know.
