Robert, Kevin and Randall,
You don´t know me but your parents headstone is right next to my parents, my grandparents and my aunt and uncle. I noted the new grass as I visited today. It was as if your mom was somehow there or maybe the newness of her passing in the date on the headstone caught my attention. However it happened, I wanted to pass on condolences. Seemed from her obituary she and my mom might have been friends in another world. I go often to visit and pray. I will keep an eye on their resting place. May God give you the graces you need to live without your parents. God bless.
