Dearest Terri and Tracy,

This photo of your mom is so beautiful. I know that you will find comfort in all of the wonderful memories of your mom. The celebration of her life was such a beautiful tribute to the woman she was and how she had touched all of our lives. Thank you for welcoming all of us to share in the experience. It was truly a touching and memorable day.

My heart and prayers remain with you now and in the days to come.

May God's peace be with you,

Connie
