Joyce and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your Mother, Shirley was one of the finest women I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I always looked forward to my visits with her and throughly enjoyed the time we were able to spend together. I will cherish those moments forever.
I have thought about her a lot this past year and missed seeing her bright smile and listening to her great stories.
The world has lost a wonderful, genuine, loving person. She will be greatly missed.
Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Love,
Susan
