Penny, I was devastated to hear of the loss of your beautiful daughter Alyssa. No words I could ever say will ease the pain, but I will tell you that you have lots of Weight Watcher friends who love you and MISS you and if you are ever near the center on a Friday morning I would love to give you a hug in person. For now, all I can offer is my love and prayers. God bless you and your family.
