So sorry to hear of the passing of my mother-in-law, Tatjana. I know that my husband, Konstantin, loved and cherished his mother dearly and will surely miss her every day. So glad he has some wonderful memories of his time spent with her, especially all their trips to Pigeon Forge. He always made trips from our home in Florida to visit his mom on her birthdays and sent flowers to her on Mother’s Day and presents for Christmas. Kons is truly a man who loves his mother, and I believe the feeling was mutual. Their last words on the phone was “I love you.”
