Dear Skip, your mother was a wonderful, sweet and kind woman. She made an impact on my life and I am so lucky to have had her for a mother-in-law. You have a lot of her qualities and I know you will be fine. Love to you and your family at this time.

Lori,
So sorry to hear about your mother, she was a very good lady and will be missed by all who knew her. I loved seeing her come in to the Dover Station with your dad. They always made me laugh. My deepest sympathy goes to you and your family. God Bless and take care.
