Emily,
So sorry to hear the loss of your mother. I feel your pain. I lost my Mom in 2007. You have all my sympathy through this time of loss.

Both of us wish to express our sympathy for all of the family members. I wish we could have known your mother, grandmother, and sister. I am sure she was a wonderful person and she is now watching from Heaven. As you know, it has been a difficult year in the loss of loved ones for all of us. We both know how difficult it can be. Remember in the memories of all of the happy moments, this is what gets us through. Soon, we will all be there, watching down, just like your mother.
Love you all,
Mary and Sue
(Darin's mother and sister)
