We know how you cared for your mother as well as all those around you and are sure she had a much better quality of life because of the care of her loving family. Although we have not seen you for breakfast since the virus started we have thought of you and your family many times. Please reach out to us anytime you need a friend as you move forward and process your grief. We still live at the same house and have the same phone number if you need anything. We send our love and will keep you, your girls and all of your extended family in our thoughts and hope you can all find peace and comfort in a life shared for so many years with your mother as part of it.
