Dear Mr. McCormick,Tom,Tim,and Terry,
My mother just called me at work and told me your dear wife and Mom had died. We are so sorry to hear this news.She was ALWAYS my role model and mentor.She was the one who encouraged me to bet my BSN. She was the one
who fought for me to be accecpted at Lawrence General School of Nursing. I truly loved and admired her. She loved her family so very much. She loved her dogs too.I got my love of Irish Setters from you-Sean Patrick is 8
now.
May God bless you all and help you through this terrible time-you have always been a strong family of love, I know you will be there for each other.
If ever I can help in any way, I hope you would let me know.
With my sincere sympathy,Valerie
