Chicago Mom Is 'A Good Friend And Helps Everyone,' Son Says
Patch and T-Mobile are partnering to shine a light on awesome moms in the Chicago area. Meet Denise Perez!

CHICAGO, IL— 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 Jonathan Garcia who nominated Denise Perez of Chicago.
What makes your Mom extra special?
My mom is my friend. She has my back for everything. She helps me do everything I need to do in school and in life. She helps my grandparents at Swop-O-Rama. She helps the school when they need help.
Why do you feel your Mom deserves the spotlight?
She is a good friend, a nice young lady. I want her to have everything she wants because I love my mom.
Happy Mother's Day to Denise Perez, and thank you for all you do!
