Carol & Ann,

So sorry to hear about your Mom, she was just one of the many sweet Mothers that abounded in our neighborhood as we all grew up. Although I know you will miss her dearly, you can rest assured that she touched many lives in a positive way, and is now reaping the heavenly rewards for her life. You and your families are in our prayers.
