Susan,

Mert will be sorrily missed. You have been through so much lately, I know it has taken alot out of you & at times it must seem like things are never going to be normal again.

But I know that You'll handle it, because you are one of the bravest people I've ever known.

You may not see yopurself that way, but I do..... You have an inner strength that keeps you hanging on in situations that would try the best of us.

You are a fighter.

Anytime in the days and weeks ahead you need anyone to remind you of this, I'm here.
