Murrieta Mom A 'Blessing' That Helps Others In Need

MURRIETA, CA— Moms do so much for everyone around them. We try to celebrate them all year long, but Mother's Day is a perfect opportunity to shout it from the rooftops and post it on Patch: Mom rocks!

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize the awesome moms and mom figures in communities like yours.

This submission comes from Jacie Gockley who nominated Teri Gockley of Murrieta.

What makes your mom extra special?

My mom is such a blessing to this world. She is always putting everyone before herself and never hesitates to help anyone in need. She has taught me how to be the best responsible, caring, and loving person that I can be, and set me up to have a successful future. She is the best mother I could ever ask for! I thank her for everything she has ever done for me, and for putting up with everything we kids have thrown at her over the years. I love you, Mom, Happy Mother’s Day!

Why do you feel your mom deserves the spotlight?

She deserves to feel loved and appreciated. She never gets enough credit for the things she does for others and for everything she has to deal with. It would mean everything to me to do something special like this for my mom, I would give her the world if I could.

Happy Mother's Day to Teri Gockley, and thank you for all you do!
