Dear Joyce and Don,

I am so sorry for your loss. I just lost my young niece, mother in law and my mother this past 6 months. My heart goes out to you. It is a very difficult thing to go through. Find comfort in knowing that she is with GOD now and in a beautiful place. You will be in my thoughts and in my prayers.
