Karl & Julian
This was very sad news. Words are difficult as emotions take over. I know, you know, how much your mother loved you & how proud she was of you. She loved your Julian, too. I remember when she told me she was going to be an Oma, her smile lit up the room. Hold on to your love for one another, & it will carry you through this sadness. My sweet Janet and I go back many years, and I am so blessed to call her my dear friend. Honestly Karl, rarely do you ever know someone with such kindness. I never heard her say an unkind word about anyone. Hold your loving & happy memories close to your hearts. It will comfort you both, and when that beautiful baby arrives, her spirit will be right there with you, and your dad Frank too.
Karl, Julian & baby, may the angels watch over you always,…
