I am very sad to hear of the passing of your mother. I know how much she meant to you and your family. Know that her spirit will be here for ever and ever and that she will be watching and caring for you from above. My sincerest sympathy goes out to you and your family in this time of sorrow. Try not to think of this as a sad time, but a celebration of her life and the love and compassion she showed for you. My prayers are with you.

I am saddened to hear of Aunt Rita's passing.

My heart breaks for those closest to her.

May time and memories help to fill the void you feel right now.

Take comfort knowing that she's home with Uncle Joe now.

Love and hugs from her loving niece, Wendy
