Freddie and family,
I am so sorry about the loss of your sister. Every year I see the memorial to your Mom in the paper, and think about how much your Dad must have loved her. And there it was again, soon after, with Diana's picture added. It was a very thoughful and caring tribute to the two of them. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
