Dear Bob,
Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to meet your mother. I feel that we would have had a lot to talk about. A few weeks ago, Peggie told me that your mother was not doing well. You have my deepest sympathy in her loss. Mary Lou Casanta

Ron and Bob, what great "sons" the two of you are. You took such wonderful care of Rita and made her last few years on earth as pleasant as they could be. It's hard to lose another one of these "Great" women who endured so much throughout their lives and really never complained. Take strength from the wonderful memories you have of her and the love she provided to you both.

Bob and Ron,
While I can't be with you in person, my thoughts go out to you in this time of loss. Rita always brought a sense of joy, contentment and peace to me whenever we visited. I'll never forget her "Mama Mia" expression. You both are remarkable men for the way you took care of her over the last few years. May you now find the same peace and contentment she exhibited to help you through this time.
Your friend,

Bob and Ron,
My sincerest sympathies for the very painful loss you are experiencing. There is a huge hole in your lives that I hope can be somewhat filled with many beautiful memories and the knowledge that you helped Rita live her senior years surrounded by love of family and wonderful caring support. All my thoughts and prayers are with Rita, you and the rest of your family.
