Dear Liz,

Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of your Mom. What a sad time for you and your brother and I am sure you are missing your Mom.

I remember your Mom as such a nice lady and she made your house sparkle. Her friendliness to me was very special, too.

Please know your Mom, you, and your brother will be in my prayers.

Take care of yourself and know what a fine daughter you were to both your parents.

Love,

Maribeth
