Donna,
This really comes to a shock, I am so very sad to hear this. Unfortunately, I did not have the pleasure of knowing your Mom, Kathryn, as I hear she was such a lovely lady. However, you and I talked about our Mom's so I do remember our conversations. Again, I am extremely sad to hear of the loss of your Mom. I will pray for you and your family at this sad time. Sincere, condolences. Laureen
