Dear Mark and Family-

Steve and I have so many wonderful memories of Cheryl when Talia and Rachel were babies and we lived in the city. Cheryl was really one of the most remarkable women I have ever met. She was strong, smart, loving and a fantastic mother and a great friend.

I am very sadden by the news and all I can offer are my thoughts are with you and the family.

What we seek to communicate is not nearly enough; we are humbled by the journey that you and your family must now embark upon. Our thoughts for eventual peace will remain with you always.
