Dear Carole, Ralph, Ron, and Don,My deepest sympathy to you and your families as you grieve the loss of your dear mother. You have lost her physical presence in this world but gained a powerful intercessor in Heaven. No one who loved her family as much as she did will ever forsake them. Of that I am sure.
