Thanks for all the great suggestions. Her name is Esther. If I could come up with something good for the E and S, I could do the rest of the M-o-t-h-e-r song......... I did locate one of her favorite songs, while she and Dad were courting: My Sweetheart's the Man in the Moon. I have the melody for the 2 verses; however, there is an intro before each verse, and I haven't been able to locate the melody for that. We'll probably use this one. Also, there's a song "That Wonderful Mother of Mine" which is a nice tribute. It dates back to the 40's. Neat thing about it is, I sang it at a Mother and Daughter Banquet about 50 years ago, and I know Mom remembers that. I might re-do it.
