    Marylin, please accept my sincere sympathies on the loss of your mother. I can see from the previous notes that she was a wonderful woman and a dear soul.

    I know this is a very difficult time for you. Having lost both parents now, I can tell you that I still smile at the memories of them and when the pain begins to subside, you will too. My parents still live in me and your mother will live in you always.

    Take good care.

    There aren’t enough words to describe Mary – Your Mom, your rock, your Grandma and a great Lady. Although she and I didn’t see one another alot it didn’t matter, time didn’t pass, we’d hug, laugh and carry on together where ever we met. she’d always ask about my boys, I have a video I’ll always treasure of Grandma Mary marching around Marilyn’s livingroom leading a musical band of Sabrina, and my boys Andrew & James. I have many memories of different visits planning things for Marilyn, or having tea while she gave child rearing advice always big hugs, a pat on the back and her infectious smile and laugh. She won’t be forgotten, and know you all have a little part of her in your own personalities, and for that you are all blessed.
