Michael and I are very sorry for your loss. I haven't seen Aunt Betty for several years but I talked to her a couple of months ago. It was nice to talk to her and hear her voice. Kelly, it was wonderful that she had you close to make sure she was well taken care of. I'm sure that it was a comfort to her to know you were so close and she could count on you. Please tell the boys how sorry we are - losing your Mother is always so very hard. Thinking of you in your time of loss.

Nancy and Michael Boyle (niece)
