Cathy-I was sorry to hear about your Mother's death. You certainly brigthened her life for many years.
My Father died in January so I know, firsthand, how tough it is. It's a part of growing up for which we are never prepared. Hugs from a Delta Gamma sister...

Cathy, you have my deepest sympathy at the loss of your mother. I remember going to your house while we were in college and enjoying your parents so much. It was obvious where your incredible sense of humor originated. Your wit enhanced the entire Delta Gamma collegiate experience for me and so many others at the U of A. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers! Litb, Dot.
