Dear Cecile and Roland,
My sincerest sympathies to both of you on the passing of your dear mother. We certainly enjoyed her sense of fun when we were little and visiting Aunt Ida or our Memere Rioux. We will remember your Mom in our prayers, but we know she is having fun at the Larochelle party in heaven.

Regina was my "big little" sister and though we have been 1200 miles apart for so many years, we shared a lifetime of friendship, joy in each other's company and a special love. Nothing will ever fill the void her passing has left in my life.
