Wallingford Woman Remembers Beloved Mom On Mother’s Day

WALLINGFORD, CT — Whether it's through their personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, daughters become a reflection of the woman who raised them. With Mother's Day 2018 this weekend, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across Connecticut to share their "mother-daughter lookalike" photos.

It doesn't matter how old the kids are, they'll always be your babies! And part of the fun of motherhood is watching your children grow up and enjoy the same things that you love.

In Wallingford, Linda Capp shares a side-by-side photo of her with her mother, who passed away Oct. 18, 2016 after a long illness. Linda said she’s always been told she looks just like her mother.

“I’m blessed to also have the same name as her,” Linda wrote in an email. “She was a very sweet, loving woman who loved to sing and sang very well.”

We hope you all have a happy Mother's Day!

It's your turn, Patch readers — what traits do you and your mom share? Submit your lookalike photos by sending them to [email protected]. Be sure to include a nice message for your loved one, as well as the city/location of the photo and the date it was taken. Or — post it via the bulletin board section of your local Patch site and we'll be sure to share.
