I was truly saddened when I heard from my mom that your mother had past away. Ms. Gilmore was always kind to me no matter what which is very rare these days to find people like her still existed. I will truly miss her but the memories that I have of her will always bring me comfort and I hope that as time passes that you may find comfort as well. I’m truly sorry for your loss.
