Bonnie,
I am sorry for your loss. Even though I never had the honor of meeting your Mother I am sure she was a wonderful role model. I know this because of who you are and what you do with your life in Baltimore. That is a total reflection of good parents. I wish only that God sends his angels to watch over you and your family during this time of sorrow and embrace you with his love and grace and give you peace.
