Happy Mother's Day 44wilitelow Aloiheid, Make It A Day To Remember By DANNY RASKIN What is a mother?...Not an easy question to answer because this favorite gal wears so many hats, playing whatever role the situation may require. At one time or another she's a big sister, a big brother, a close friend, a father...whatev- er...And she's the one person you can always count on for that certain kind of love every human being needs. You can have oodles of brothers and sisters but only one mother...She comes in all shapes and sizes...She can be just as good dancing at a fancy ball as she is washing clothes or dishes. Mother is a certain some- thing all people the face of th earth have in common... Everybody has or has had one. These are but a tiny few of the reasons why we celebrate Mother's Day every year... Sunday May 9, is the date for 1993...although my mom, Minnie Raskin, used to say, - Why all the fuss? Everyday is Mother's Day." It's sort of like a yearly remembrance thank you for all the work she has done...all the tears she has shed...all the trials and tribulations that go with bearing and bringing up chil- dren...all the words of advice...the motherly love of which there is no other. Mother's Day is like a special momentous occasion for all- round celebration to a lassie the whole world thinks is pretty darned nice...a tribute to a love of which there is none like it. Every year, in honor of mother on her very special day, many community restaurants and hotels have a way of show- ing how much she means with special Mother's Day brunches and dinners...Here is a partial listing of what is going on for that great gal: A UNIQUE MOTHER'S DAY BRUNCH MOM deserves no less than the best!
