Dear Jackie and family, I am so sorry to see the passing of your Mom. You and I attended school together and I have many memories of hearing warm loving stories of your family . You were very generous to us at the Resource Center in Southington when my Mom was in hospice. I hope you know how grateful we were. I pray your Mom is dancing with Angels.
