I was saddened to hear of the passing of your dear mother on Monday. It seems in most case that mothers have more influence on us than any other person throughout life's journey. I know that you will miss your mother's unconditional love very much, I hope that you can find comfort in your many special memories and in the thought of the happy years you shared. May your faith sustains you in the day ahead.
If there is anything I can do to help you during your bereavement, please let me know.
