Dear Rose, Marc, Joe and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. I know how hard it is to lose your parents. I hope at this time you can remember the happy fun times you've shared in your lives. It is also comforting to know that your mom was welcomed by your dad and other family members. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.
