  2. Dear Nancy and family,

    I am so sorry for the loss of your mom, Helen. I had been visiting her once a month
    and loved those times we had together. She was a very special lady and loved all
    of you so much and would express that to me often.

    It is never easy to lose a loved one but to know she went peacefully surrounded by
    all of her children, I pray brings you comfort.

    May she be in peace re-united with all of her loved ones who have gone before her.

    I would like to end with a quote that I love and hope it will be a comfort to all of you.

    “What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all the we love
    deeply becomes a part of us.” (Helen Keller).

    With love and prayers,

    Linda Perrino
