    Jean Ann,
    I am so sorry that you lost your mother. No matter their or our ages, it’s never less than a shock to the system to suddenly be without our moms.

    Shirley had let me know of your mother’s illness, and then tonight emailed me about her passing. My thoughts are with you as you lay her to rest.
