Ivanka recalled following her mother — the glamorous Czech-born businesswoman and ex-wife of former President Donald Trump — around Trump Plaza as she oversaw daily operations in the 1980s, and called her “pure fun” when she was off the job.
“Mom, I’ll always love you today and every day. You were and always will be the light of our lives,” Ivanka said, holding back tears.
At the private service, attended by roughly 100 mourners, Don Jr. called his mom “fearless and independent” for “escaping the iron curtain” of then-communist Czech Republic.
