Dear Hazel and Ron,
I exptend my deepest sympathy for the loss of your parents. I can't imagine saying good-bye under these conditions, with so much removed from you, even things that you would cheish because they belonged to mom and dad. I send prayers and Jesus' Blessings to help you through this difficult time, and the Blessed Mother to comfort you. (I attended CSB with Hazel )
