Dear Daiva, I have just learned of your great loss and know you are in great pain. I am certain that it comforts you to know that you were a great comfort to your dear mama and that she was greatly pleased with the tender and loving kindness you offered her during her illness. I have never read or written a blog before, but Fran Mittler was kind enough to forward your blogspot to us. I am overwhelmed and greatly in awe of your family and their lives. I have tried to send you another email without success and hope this sending will succeed. Daiva, please know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers and that we have enrolled your mother and you and your family in all the Masses and Prayers of the St. Patrick Fathers for one year, as well as our own prayers. I know you will have many tasks ahead of you and hope that you will find a few moments to at least stop in at the Oak Lawn Garden Club meeting for at least a hug and/or a handshake. Please take care of yourself. Best regards, Pat Stube.
