To Mark,
Be assured that you are being embraced by all your Jaycee family right now, and that we grieve because you grieve. We hope your memories of Mom are good ones and that they will sustain you for the trip ahead. Losing a parent is something almost all of us have to endure but that doesn't lessen the pain and sense of loss. All we can offer is a hug of friendship and support. All Jaycees extend their sincerest condolences and wish you the very best in the future. Lean on us if you need a steady hand to hold. We will be here.
Love, Russ & Alice Dolbear
57th President, Virginia Jaycees
