I am so sorry to hear of your mothers death. Although I only had the pleasure of meeting her a few times, I was impressed by her Grace and kindness. She was a wonderful person and I am sure she will be sorely missed by all that knew her. Please give your dad (my big brother) a hug for me. I had hoped to fly out to visit with them, but unfortunately I fell last January and broke my hip bone. While in a nursing home I had a stroke. I am still taking physical therapy and hope to finally recover before long. Again you have my heartfelt condolences for your loss of your mother. Lots of love, Your uncle Fred
