Please accept my deepest and heartfelt sympathies for the loss of your mother. So many memories have come flooding back of all the times spent visiting with her, chatting, crying, laughing -- especially when Ronnie was in Viet Nam. She always made time for me and was always ready with a hug. She was a very strong, direct, no-nonsense woman, but with a tender heart, especially when it came to her children. I know you will miss her tremendously. Hold her in your hearts.
