Dear Catherine and the Burns family,



I was so sorry to hear of the death of your Mom. I remember her as always being so kind to us "kids" when we'd be over at your house. I'm not going to be able to be at the wake this evening, but I wanted you to know you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Your Mom raised a wonderful fanily, and I'm sure you'll always have many happy memories and stories to share with each other. God bless.
