Dear Leon and Cookie,

I was saddened to read of your mother's passing. Loosing a parent is very difficult. We lost our Mom in 1990 and to this day we still miss her. My Mom was very fond of you and Cookie, in fact she thought the world of both of you. I think of both of you often. Did you know that I named my second daughter, Sandra Lee, after your first born dauther.

Once again, I would like to extend my sincere condolences, and may your Mom always stand in the light of God's amazing grace.

Fondly,
Virginia Cielakie Gosse
