Susan and Family - I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that your mom is in a better place where the pain and suffering no longer exist. While I did not personally know your mother, I do recall all the conversations we had regarding her courageous battle. She lived a wonderful life and I know she appreciated the support that you and the family always provided in her times of need. I walked this same path almost 2 years ago and truly understand the difficulties involved with losing a parent. Stay strong and know that I am here for you in any way you may need. You and your family are in my prayers. God bless.
