Dear Family of Mrs. Corbett:



Our deepest condolences on the loss of your Mom; we just found out about her death on Sunday.



We would see her at Mass and kept her in our prayers. You are to be commended on the care you gave your Mom; I'm sure she truly appreciated you and your willingness to give her the ability to attend Mass.



God Bless you.
