Dorothy and Charlie, I am very sorry to hear about your mother. We were childhood friends in Dorchester and she was a bridesmaid at my wedding. We lost touch years ago which I regret. I have very fond memories of her and will always cherish them. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
