Dear Doug and family,
I'm a little at shock as I just stumbled across this memorial site for your mother.
You have my deepest sympathy at this time of her passing.
May she rest in eternal peace.
My immediate thoughts are of how kind, sweet and wise she was.
And thirty years on, I can still recall her meatloaf - it will never be surpassed.
Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
And may the God of all comfort be with you and bring you peace at this time of loss and sadness.
Your friend always,
