Pleaase accept our deepest sympathy on the loss of your Mom – she was a good friend to the “ladies”, Ruthie S, Barb H., Emily T., and our mother, Nancy – we have to believe that those that have gone before including our Mom, saved her chair at the table, and they are up in heaven having a good time – playing cards, sippping their whiskey sours — and enjoying their time together.
We were all very lucky to have such positive, strong and loving women in our lives!
