Dear Dee and Family-
When we lose someone we love, no matter the age or circumstances, the sense of loss is unbearable. Dee, you were your mothers safe harbor. Your loving arms were always outstretched and she knew it. The love between a mother and her loving child is a blessing. You did everything you could--no guilt--no "maybe I should have...". Be well and know how much you are loved.
In Sympathy and Friendship
