Jim, Naheel and Family,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I remember both of your parents so well I attended Weight watchers with them and she and your Dad had such a wonderful relationship and they were so cute together. I hope you and your family find comfort in knowing she is at peace and they are together again.
