To my cousins Ronnie, Kathy and Gerry - very sorry to learn of your Mom's passing. It's been a long time since I've seen her, but I remember all of the good times we had when we were youngsters. I miss all of our Aunts and Uncles. My Mom, Clara, passed away almost two years ago and I miss her very much. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
