Verona and family. I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. I had the privilege of meeting her two times and she was a very sweet, nice lady. She was very helpful to Ashley during her college and internship helping her in any way she could with advice, going to the conferences and just being a friend to her. Ashley thought a lot of Miss Ann. I think of you often and hope that you are doing well in your career too. May God bless and comfort you and your family in the days ahead.
