Dear Tamara, Tina, and Ruth Ann,
I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Although I never met her, I felt like I knew her from talking on the phone with her frequently, when she would call for Tamara at Homewood.
May God bless you all, and be with you, always.

Dear Tina, Tamara, and Ruth Ann,

I am sorry for the loss of your mother. I enjoyed helping Madge when she was at Sunrise. I will remember the talks she and I had in the evening over hot tea. She was so proud of her girls.

I know how difficult it is to say goodbye to a parent as I lost my dad last August. Please know that I am thinking and praying for you.

Be strong ladies

Dear Evans' girls,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. I well remember our chats/gripe sessions, across the hall at Sunrise.
Madge had a good, long life, just like my dear mother (who died this same month a year ago.) How lucky we were to have enjoyed our mothers' company for such a long journey.

You showed your mother so much devotion and love; may you all take comfort in knowing that you were the best daughters a mother could have had!

Fondly, Mary Truck
