Mom, I enjoyed our talks. It was good to hear you laugh and it made me happy to be a part of that. We were lucky to have the time and opportunity to give our love and our goodbyes to you. You are in good hands and I will see you again one day. I love you. My deepest heartfelt love goes to Bob and Carol for their loss and to my sister Francie, I love you all. Jerry
