Dearest Louise, Denise, Cami, and Gigi,
It is with heavy heart that I wish to send along the Gaudreau family's condolences on the passing of your Mom. Please, know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you in this difficult time. Personally, I remember the warm summer days at Spring Lake and the green station wagon we all use to pile into for the trip from Annette Ave. But what rings in my memories ear is the sound of your Mom's laughter, It was an infectious invite to join her in a moment lightheartedness. May God bless you all...
Take care always,
Stephen
