Mom, we spent our last time together September 16, on the back patio of the nursing home. We were having lunch. There was a blue sky with no clouds and a gentle breeze. That was our moment.. Your Son ox

She will remain with us
since love itself cannot die. We will never be more than a thought apart.
For as long as we are able to remember,
she'll live on in our heart.

Dear Chuck,
My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mom. I only meet her once, but she was so very sweet and kind to me and that is the way I will always remember her. She gave you life, and then you came into mine as my brother-in-law and I will always be thankful to her for that. God bless you and help you through the rough times ahead. Know that she will always be remembered in a loving manner by me and she will be missed very much.
