Michelle-
You had a wonderful mom who loved you very much. I met your mom in highschool when I was 12 y.o. We did everything together. I was delighted to be maid of honor at her wedding and am honored to be
your Godmother.
I know this is a very sad and rough
time for you. Know that you are in
my thoughts and prayers.
Loads of hugs and much love.
