Dear Dave,
Very sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. Over the last 8 months, I've found that talking with other people who have experienced the loss of a parent recently has been most helpful. If you ever need a listening ear, I'm just a phone call away. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I so enjoyed getting together with your family (my aunt, uncle, cousins), running around the yard at your Tyngsboro house, and generally having a great time! Aunt Janny will be missed. What a loving woman! - Elaine
