Dear Ed, I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. My mother just called me and told me. If Rhonda is not working tomorrow maybe her and i can attend the service. I always remember your mother smiling all the time, even when she was upset with you. I'm sure she has touched many a heart and will be remembered in alot of good ways.
