John - I hope you get this message as I have had a hard time finding an address for you. I have had you in my thoughts and have such wonderful memories of your mother.

Margaret was my mother´s very good friend and I also felt the light of her love. She was a special individual indeed and her fun loving ways always made me laugh!
