My dear friend, Louie,
My prayers are with you in your time of loss and always. I know how close you and your dear mother were and I still feel the ache of my own mother's passing years later.
As time went on, memories gave me relief and even joy...tinged with sadness.

Try to be good to yourself during this unbelievably difficult time and know your mother is still with you in ways you have yet to feel.

My thoughts are with you and your familiy along with my prayers and sympathy.

With love,

Lou, David, Alan and Laurel, I was sad to hear about your mother. She was a special next door neighbor and friend to my mom (Betty). I have good memories of her and your dad when all of us were kids on 62nd Place,there were many good time backyard parties. I know she is now happy to be with Chris and Beverly. I know your parents are keeping company with my mom, dad, Pete & Ann Sepanski of course my son Tim,she always had something special (cookies or candy) for him.
