Dear "Nurse Janet" and Family:

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. As Samantha said, "Now all the great ladies of our neighborhood are gone." Your mother truly was a great lady, elegant, kind and a wonderful neighbor. She is where she belongs now, with her beloved husband.
