Michelle, I am sorry to hear about your loss. I pray that your family finds peace and comfort during this time of sorrow.

Yea, though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death, I will fear or dread no evil, for You are with me; Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide], they comfort me. Psalms 23:4

Michelle, please know that our hearts and prayers are with you! We just wish we were able to take away your sorrow and somehow ease your burden.
I remember some time ago your saying that some of the best times of your life were spent at our dining room table playing board games and laughing our tails off. We certainly did have great fun and I'll tell you what. Any time you want one of those times again, just let us know. That can be arranged! With very much love, Sam & Tess

David and I were sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. Perhaps the words of Helen Keller will bring you comfort: "What we have deeply loved we can never lose, for all we love deeply, becomes a part of us."
Sincerely,

Michelle, Eric, Paul, Kevin & Emily: You are all in my thoughts during this trying time. There are no words to say how my heart goes out to you, nor is there any sufficient way to convey my sympathy. However, you know I am thinking of you and of her, and I know that in that moment when she left you, she went to touch the face of God.

I took for granted that you would alway be there; just not knowing how short our time would be;
What I would not give for you to call asking very little of me.

Nothing can ever fill the void in my heart until the day we are together again.

I love and miss you deeply Mom -
