Dear Raymond and Family, We are so sorry to hear about your mother's passing. It is hard to lose a parent or grandparent. We lost Dad last February 2008 and Aunt Calista (Darlene's mother) this February 2009. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this time of sorrow for your loss of your mother and Bobby. Rely on God to comfort and carry you all through this time of sadness. Also remembering happier times with your family will help. Love, Linda (Pooler) Legaspi and Family
