Enedine & Juan,
I am very sorry to hear of your mother's passing. I hope and pray that you remain strong like I have always known you to be. May you find comfort in knowing that as your friends we are there for you. I know your mom was such a great lady. I know you were very close. What a beautiful soul she was. Please take care of yourself and email me as soon as you can, Enedine, I'd love to hear from you. May God keep you strong in this time of sorrow.

Juan, please take care of Enedine and give her our love. (This is from Roadrunner)
Love to both of you,
