Sam:
Janet and I are so sorry for the loss of your Mother.
While I am at a loss for words; words that might offer you some measure of comfort and empathy, I can say one thing with absolute certainty; No Mother on earth will ever know of a son that is as caring and loyal as you were to your Mother in both healthy and declining years.
You selflessly committed yourself to providing her the very best in care; and did so with great love and compassion. And you asked for very little for yourself in return except that she was safe and comfortable.
This I can assure you is an inspiration to all of us.
We wish you well in your time of grief.
