Dear Sandy,
My deepest sympathy in the death of your Mother. I always enjoyed being at your house and the fun we had with your Mom. As the years progressed, I would see your Mom around Palmyra and she always had a beautiful smile and hug for me. Today, I remember her and you in my prayers and smile, for this is my hug to your Mom.
Love, Nancy
