Sandra,

Thank you kindly for your phone call. It was such a privilege and honor to be your mother's doctor. She was a joy to know and to care for. I was also in awe of your love and devotion to her - I always admired you for that. My prayers are with you and your family.

Sandy, I was so sorry to hear about your mother. I remember walking down to the bathhouse on Revere Beach every summer and looking forward to seeing your mom. May her memory be for a blessing.

We are saddened to hear of Lil's passing. My warm thoughts of her go back to the Dana Street and Dix Street area. May she rest in pease and be remembered always.
