Dear Sally and Mike,
So sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. My hope is that she was surrounded by family as she made her transition. May your comfort be the knowledge that she has returned home. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

To My Dad's Family:
I do not have the words to express what I carry in my heart. My Dad, Max, was her son. I know that I love and cared for her, but especially greatful for her having my Dad, that she unselfishly brough into this world. She was a speacial lady, and through my Dad, I will always share the love she taught him and the meaning of family love among us. She will be missed greatly. And she will be in our hearts, and her memory will live on.

To the Lerma Family:

I was very sad to hear of you mother's passing. I know she lived a long and happy life but that doesn't make it any easier. I remember attending birthday parties as a child and I saw her through the years and she was always in a good mood and always happy. I still have a picture of her at Carries baby shower standing there with all of us smiling and happy. That's how I will always remember her.
