Bobby,
I just wanted to let you all know that I am sorry to hear about your mom (Carol). She was a wonderful lady and I have lots of good memories of her, she became my "mom" when my own couldn't be. I will miss her so much as I know you all do. Please call me if you need to talk I wish I would have known sooner I would have came down to be with all of you. Just always remember she is and will always be with you and you are gonna see things that remind you of her everywhere and when that happens just think of a good memory and smile, that's what she would want. As much as it hurts right now it will get a little easier over time. I love and miss all of you!
Love, Melissa
