Dear Kathy and Susan,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. She was a loving, kind and generous person. I loved her laugh and her kindness is something I will remember about Eva. It is never a good time to lose a parent but she had her struggles in the past few years. I am glad she is resting peacefully now. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Luv June
