Gil and Family,
So sorry to hear about your mom's passing. Our (Michael, Nancy and mine) mother, Mary Jane Smith, was fond of her and they remained 2 of the last few of their time to periodically remain in touch. Our mom passed away 5 years ago and we know what you must be going through. Gil, this brings back old Cathedral grade school memories of which our moms were so much a part of. Warmth and light to you and yours as you go through this time.
