I am so very sorry for your loss. I am very sorry for how Anne left this world. I will never be sorry she was in it. Her smile could light up a neighborhood. Her humor was unequaled. When God lit her candle and sent her to Earth to join us, He just lit her up a little too brightly. I am comforted by a vision of Anne's bright light sitting next to your Mother's. I hope you are too. I love you all. Uncle Sean
