Dear Beth,
Sincere condolences to you and your family at this time of loss. Your mother was such a wonderfully gracious woman, it was always a pleasure to spend time with her. She had a knack for making all of your father's law clerks feel like they were family. God bless you and the rest of your parents' posterity with the happiest memories of this great lady.

Dear Beth,
I am so sorry to read of your mother's passing. I have meant to call so many times and it always got put on a back burner. You know what they say about good intentions.

May God bless you with the comfort and...
