Our Mom was the definition of love.

1 Cor 12:4-7. Love is patient, love is kind. it does not envy, it does not 
boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it 
is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in 
evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects always trusts, always 
hopes, always perseveres.
