"There were toasts to her and stories of her growing up in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains and lots of love and music and laughter," she added. Late last month, her mother's health suddenly deteriorated.

According to Lucci, she received a call telling her that her mother, Jeanette, was nearing the end of her life. Her only hope at the time was that she would reach her beloved mom in time.
