Dear Chelee,

I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. The fact that you went to see her the night before her passing must give you such comfort. You have such wonderful memories to sustain you in your grief. Losing a parent is so hard, I have lost both of mine - my mom to bc when I was 12 yrs old - so I can relate to your grief.

You are in my prayers.
