Dear Evan and Pam,
I am so so very sorry for your loss. I will always remember your mom as a really special, committed, self less woman who never showed me anything but the most genuine kindness and affection. She obviously was a phenomenal mom, even to the local hippie kids like me. Both of your parents were so wonderful. I still have my original Sebor water color seascape hanging proudly on my bedroom wall. I deeply regret not being there to see you both and thank you for sharing them with me.
