Janie and Leslie,
I was so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. It is my hope that both of you take great comfort in the fact that you gave her all of the love and attention that two daughters could give to their mother. I have always admired your unwaivering dedication to your mother and her well-being. May memories comfort you in the days ahead.
