Dear Carla, Tom, and Family,
We are so sorry to hear of your mom’s passing. We only met her once, but she was so very friendly and easy to chat with…she made us feel like we’d known her forever! Obviously her “work” was done on this side of eternity. Trust that you will meet again. May God help bring you and your family peace after this loss …for as we know…there is no one like one’s mother. Hugs.
Much love,
Jayne and Sam
