Mary, Paul & Family,
Our mothers will always be our refuge for there is no greater love than the love for a mother for her children, or a child for their mother except for God's love which is unsurpassed. My heart is broken of the loss of Artie. She was one of the best true friends I ever had. She loved her family so much. Mary, you will never regret the fantastic care you gave to her. You will probably miss her most, because you were with her constantly. She was so crushed by the loss of her sister Mary, now she will be reunited with her again. You have mine & Don's greatest sympathy.
