Alan,Laurie and Jana-I was so sorry to hear about your mother’s death. I know that no words can take away the deep sadness you must be feeling. I hope you can take some time to rest and reminisce about the happy memories you have. She was certainly a very special lady and will be missed by many. I hope it helps to know that my love and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. All my love Martha
