Dear Lydia, Alice, Bob & Joe & families, Deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother. Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to the visitation, but I have been thinking of some of the enjoyable times we had with Mother. For instance, when Wayne bought that wrapping paper that wasn't suppose to rip. Mom went around trying to get all of us to try & rip the paper. Another time when Joe got the mask from my friend and she fell over the kids, Your mother was very concerned about the girl while we were all holding our laughs in. She was so kind to accept Jenn & Jeff into your family circle too. These are just a few of the stories I remember that make me smile & laugh all over again. I know these last few years were rough on Mary and on the family too. I am sure she is her old self now & at peace. Again I miss being with you at this time but be sure I am there in spirit with you all.
