I often think of aunt Olga. She helped my parents and always welcomed me into her home.

Commander Boggs,

I am so sorry for your loss. Having lost my Mom, and you did come to console me, I have a clue as to what you are going through. The day of the wake I had major commitments or I would have been there. May the good Lrd console in your time of grief.
