Dear Dwynne & Doug,
So sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. It is always difficult to lose a parent especially a mother as it breaks a lifelong bond. Our heartfelt sympathies.
As you know, Carman's dear Mother Barb passed about a year and half ago and we are still trying to fill a huge void in our lives, thus we know how you are mourning.
Please know that we are thinking of you and have you and your families in our prayers.
Blessings, Carman & Mize
