John, I am sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. I am sure she will be missed dearly by her family and her friends. You and Gertrude will be in my prayers this week.
Dear Jeanne, Courtney, Jay and Joel,<br><br>You are all in my thoughts and prayers as you pass through this time of sorrow with the passing of your mother and grandmother. I spoke to her on the phone while you were all together at the Cape a few weeks ago and she very alert and seemed to be in good spirits that evening. Even though I am sure you all are missing her very much I am glad for her sake that her final decline in health was not prolonged.
