I know how much your Mom loved you - I will always remember the day in the MJH hospital parking lot - when they were taking you to UVA Hospital and Robert and I ran into your Mom and the love and concern she showed for you was so unspeakable she was on the way to see you and make sure her little girl was being taken care of. Angie we love you and the family and our prayers are with you daily. Love Robert and Judy
