Marcia, Andrea, Bill, and Rich,

I was so sorry to hear of the recent passing of your lovely mother. Please know that you and your families are in my thoughts and prayers at this sad time. I will always appreciate your mother's many visits to see my father in the nursing home over the years. I like to think that your parents and mine now are reunited and enjoying being together again, as in the past. Your parents were cherished and lifelong friends of my parents. May they all rest in peace.
