“Brian, Tina, Paige & Robyn:
I just wanted to pass along my sympathies on the passing of your mother/mother-in-law and grandmother. I lost my dad in February so I know what you're going through. It still doesn't seem real. Death is such a tough part of life that unfortunately we all have to go through. Just cherish the great memories that you have with her. It will make you smile.
Take Care!
Janice
