Dear Rita, David, Regina and William, I’m sorry about your Mom and sorry I can’t be there with you to celebrate her life. She always seemed to be smiling and upbeat. I know my Dad loved it when she stopped by, and when Aunt Rosemary walked down from her apartment to join them. They all shared a special bond.

I hope we can all get together some day to reunite and reminisce.

Love, Holly
