"Deanna, Laurie and Jason; I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. I have many memories of being at your house when we were young. Your mom was a such a strong woman. I remember the surprise parties she planned and the Halloween costumes she created for you. She was a special lady with a lot of personality. She will be missed. "
