Kristin & Chip,
I am so sorry to hear that your mom passed. It is very sad, she was a lovely and kind woman whom I remember fondly. I am going to try to come to the visitation on Sunday. Kristin, I know you have been through a lot and if I can help dont hesitate to call me, even if you just want to talk. I think of you often. I will say a prayer for your family and mom.
