George & Lori,
I'm terribly sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Unfortunately, due to a prior commitment I was unable to attend the wake. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Catherine, I'm saddened to hear of the passing of your mom, please accept my condolences. I would like to share a poem with you and your family from an unknown author.
Life is but a stopping place
A pause in what’s to be
A resting place along the road
To sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant
to learn some things,
But never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place
Far greater than we know.
For some, the journey’s quicker,
For some the journey’s slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We’ll claim a great reward
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord
