Cathy, Becky and families,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. We have been out of town for the month of August and just found out about your mom. I can't tell you how bad I feel that I wasn't able to be there with you. I loved your mother, she was like a 2nd mom to me while we were all growing up and we have stayed in touch all these years. I am so fortunate to have had her in my life, always happy, upbeat and supportive in matters of the heart. My deepest sympathy to you all. She will be greatly missed by many.
Love, Cheryl
