Mona,
You and your family are in my prayers and always have been. If you ever need anything no matter what time or day please do not hesitate to get a hold of me. Please allow God to help you through this time because you know that He is there for you always and will never leave you. Remember that you will see Tony again in paradise. The whole family have been through so much this past year and a half, but we will get through it and be better for it.
I love you Mona and God Bless You.
