Jeannie, I am so, so sorry for the loss of your beloved mother. No matter how grown we are, it is a devastating loss. I know she was a spirited lady and I suspect you take after her kindly. Emily loved her to pieces and often spoke of her. You and your entire family are in my thoughts and prayers. Her love and memory will carry you through and your grief will be shared. --- Amy.

Knowing Helen has been a blessing and a treasure for all of us fortunate enough to have known
and loved her. What a wonderful
thought to know that her and my
mother can now be together in
a place with no pain or tears.
With love,
