Dear Danny, please accept our sincerest sympathies for Mom's passing. She was a dear sweat sweat lady and I'm honored to have known her over the years and having her share with me what was important to her, her love for you, the cats, a lil' bit of Elvis and those beautiful goblens of hers...she just loved to tell stories about each one. My family and I will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. Vecnaja Pamjat Teta Leni :)
