Dear Jack,

I was shocked when I heard that Wendy was out on bereavement leave due to the death of her mother-in-law. It didn't take long to realize that your mother had passed away. What a tragic loss for all of you. You had spoken about your mother on several ocassions and I could tell that you were close to her. Wendy filled me in on some of the details and I realized that your whole family was very close. How wonderful that you were all together to share her last moments. Take solace in the knowledge that she was happy doing what she loved best, being with her family. The ache will never go away, but the happy memories will always be there, too. Take care and know that you have many people praying for you. God Bless.

Rob and Family, I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Losing a love one is the most painful experience you will share but give yourself time to grieve and to remember what a special person she was. I can't be with you but I am thinking about you and your family.

Rob and Family,



I remember a long time ago when my father passed away. Even though Rob and I hadn't seen each other in a while, your mother told Rob to seek me out because she knew I needed his support. She, of course, was right and I will always remember her for that. Even though we can't be there in person, please know that my family's thoughts and prayers are with you and your mom.
