Dear Janice, Judy, Pete, and Joni,
I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. It is always hard when our moms leave us. I'm praying for God's peace and comfort for all of you as you go through this time. Pete, thank you so much for coming to my mom's visitation last year. I appreciated it very much. Janice, wow! It has been a long time since we have talked. Take care.

Judy I am so sorry to hear of this. I have many fond memories of spending time with her, doing her hair and just talking. She was always wonderful to me and will be missed by all that knew her.
