Dear Anita's Family:
Please accept my sincere sympathy for the loss of your Mom. She was an inspiration to me at a very difficult time in my life and taught me how to have strength and courage in dealing with life. I know that she taught all of you that as well and that is what will get you through this difficult time. My prayers are with all of you. I will always remember her with great fondness as she was the best landlord I ever had who really cared about people.
(P.S. I was the lady with "Sarge.")

Lisa: I ran into you in the surgical waiting room at Mercy Hospital when both our Mother's were in surgery that day, and it also turned out that my older sister knew your older sister who was there as well. I want you to know that I am so very sorry to learn of your loss and I will keep you all in my prayers.

Maria and family,
There are no words I could say to help heal the pain you are all feeling right now.
Your family has been a huge part of my past memories. Your mom was like a mom to me she always made me feel part of your family growing up. From the Bison's game to Michael chasing Maria around the kitchen table. You will cry and then the next minute you will laugh.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
