We pulled up the newspaper article and have sent it to Susan, Rich and Mark as well as Jean Falk. The article was all- encompassing. Our memories, however, encompass so much more. Love to all.

I was shocked and am now very sad to hear of your loss. I knew your Mom at HRA and fondly remember her as a great math teacher.



Unfortunately I am unable to be with you tomorrow in Richmond but will take some time to remember your Mom and to send prayers and thoughts to each of you.
