Although we cannot be there with you during this difficult time, be assured that our thoughts and prayers are with you.

When my mom died back in 1986, Aunt Jo Walsdorf did a cross stitch for me that read, "To live in the hearts of those you love is not to die." I think it is very true.

Peace and Love.
