Dear Sue, Julie and Stacy,



I just read the notice and am so sorry to hear that your mom has passed away. I know it's been a difficult time to lose both of your parents in such a short time. They, like all of you, welcomed me into your family during some difficult years. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your grandfather.



Love to all of you,
