I was so sad to read of Flo's passing; we had many good times together and it was always a bright spot to run across her at the Farmers' Market. We talked family a lot, and it struck me how devoted she was to you all. Blessings on her and on you and your families!

Mom, I love you so much and I am trying to be strong like I said I would be, but it's harder than I thought it would be. I just keep remembering your words "don't cry my sweet Charlotte" as you stroke my cheek. I will never forget your tender loving touch and all that you have done for me. I love you with all my heart and that's where I will keep you always.
Love you ALWAYS, Your Daughter Charlotte
