Mom, I´m glad you´re out suffering and pain. You´re are with Eddie now and all of family and friends. I don´t know what I´m going to do without you. Probably shrivel up and die. (Joke between mom and I) I´ll take good care of the girls. Actually, they´ll take good care of me. I´ll miss you and I love you. Tell Eddie to turn that TV down.
