Dear Connie, Shane, Casey and Jessica,
I was deeply saddened to hear of the death of your beautiful mother and grandma. She was a lovely, giving and caring lady who always put her family and others first. She was such a marvelous blessing to our classroom when Connie and I were working together. May her dear soul rest in peace.
