I had just found out late Sunday and am disappointed I was unable to pay my respects in person. Be content that such a lovely woman is now at home with Our Lord. Best wishes always, Fr. Bob.

Dear Bob and Family,

My sincerest condolences upon the death of your mother. Know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. This difficult time will surely test and deeply sadden you, but the wonderful life your mom shared with you will bring great comfort, I'm sure.

Everyone here in the Rectory sends their regards.

May God bless you abundantly,
