Dear Antoinette, I am so sorry. I remember when we met for the first time and chatted about family. From the smile on your face and gleam in your eye, it was very clear how proud and delighted you were -- and are -- about all your children, including Ashton whose handsome photo watched over your desk. We wish we could ease your sadness.
