Mom, not a day goes by that I don't think about you. You are always with me, and I look forward to the day we are together again to talk, and laugh, and, of course, watch our Hallmark movies. I love you

We were so sorry to hear about your mom. Our mom recently told us a story, about the early days, when our dads use to go to the games and they would stay home and have pajama night. I'm sorry for your loss. She is surely in heaven and watching over all of you.

To the Earls family, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Trudy was such a special person. I will never forget our talks and how she cared for me. I am very fortunate that we were able to share time together. Her curiosity and sense of humor were a part of every conversation we had and the love of her family and caring for her home were her greatest achievements. Truly an angel named Trudy is in Heaven tonight.

Therese, it just broke my heart to hear of your mom's passing. She was a very special lady, and I enjoyed our Christmas time lunches at her house. She always made me feel very special, and I am honored to have known her. I will be keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
