Hello Jean:
I was deeply saddened to learn of the loss of your dear daughter, Pat. I remember your family moving into your home on Weir Street, but memory of your children, other than Pat, has faded. Brian is more familiar with them. Please know that you are in my thoughts as you journey through this time of the sorrow of losing a child.
It is not the order of life. Gil experienced losing a son aged 22, and I'm sure he would want me to share his condolences with you, also.
Much strength for tomorrow and the days ahead.
Mary
