Shirley, Old Friend,

I've thought of you so often thoughout my life. I have so many fond memories of you and your family. I ALWAYS think of your mom when I hear Perry Como. I was very sorry to hear the news from Janet about her passing. She was such a gentle, sweet woman and she always made me feel welcome. I send you warm wishes and pray for your serenity. Time is a great healer.

Hi Shirley,
I'm so sorry to hear about your mom. I remember her from our high school days, how much she loved Perry Como! What a sweet lady. Would love to hear from you. I still keep in touch with Ana.
