"My 'Mom,' Carol, always told me that God doesn't give you anything you can't handle
-- so, in our case, He must think we're pretty strong people." -- By the actress who's inscribed photo hangs on the wall of Elijah -- Pamela Anderson. |

"Mothers play many roles throughout their lifetime: a nurse, a cook, a chauffeur, a maid, a friend, a confidant, a teacher, a partner and a grandmother. Mothers are the source, the origin and the producer of life -- as well as nurturing, loving and protective." |
"My 'Mom,' Margaret Wilson, was a proud, devoted mother. She was always there to provide
support, encouragement and, when necessary, a strong reminder of right and wrong. I remember her for the qualities of love, discipline, and responsibility she combined to make our home warm and nurturing. My mother truly summed up the word 'Mom' and I'm proud that she's included in this special tribute to mothers." -- By Governor Pete Wilson of Sunny California. |
"I grew up in an era when the word 'mother' was not a 'hyphenate.' There was a very popular song called, 'My Mom, I Love Her. -- My Mom, you'd love her...who wouldn't love her...my Mom.' That's the kind of Mom I had -- and I miss her." -- By the gentle Oscar-winning Actor and Comedian Red Buttons. |

Boxer Smokin' Joe Frazier is noted for promoting attributes he learned as a child: "Credibility, Durability, Dedication, Discipline, Sacrifice, Loyalty, Honesty, and Hard Work." Joe said: "When I think of how my momma carried me for nine months inside her body while disfiguring it, making her have sleepless nights -- and then feeling the excruciating pain of bringing me into the world -- I know that being a mother is a great thing." |
For those who still wonder what came first, the chicken or the egg, I believe that we can safely assume -- God made the chicken first. In similar fashion,
He made Adam and Eve before the first child was born. Just as a chick depends
upon nature to exist -- so do we, every soul who survives within a human body
on Planet Earth. |
"I'm for mothers!" |

This tribute is from the lady who was once described as "the most beautiful woman in films," the versatile Arlene Dahl. |
