Dear Jan & Paul, Ann & Ken,
Please accept my sympathy on the death of your brother. Vail was blessed to have your loving care in his last few months, and you are blessed by your caring as well. There is nothing simple or easy about that kind of love, but it is a great gift. May your brother rest in peace, and may all of you find peace as well.
Love, Shirley
