In Loving Memory

My heart goes out to you, Robbyn. Please know that I am thinking of you and just an email away. Do you have my phone number? Let me know. I'll happily send it to you if you need to talk. I'm happy to listen.

There are no words I can say to take away the pain in your hearts, but I am so sad for you! You are in my thoughts and prayers.
If anything can comfort you, know that she is no longer in pain, and now free from the troubles of this world; her world is now perfect.
Also, know that you did everything you could to make sure her last days were as peaceful and painless as you could make them.
If you need to talk, email me, I always have a shoulder to cry on!

Sending my prayers for healing in your time of loss, as well as peace in the knowing that she is being greeted with love and laughter by those who go before us.

Robbyn, I remember so well when I lost my mother. We're never prepared for it. Jack and you are in my thoughts and prayers, my friend. The last days with her were a gift you wil treasure in the days ahead of you. She was quite a woman.
