Dear Dale, Gary, and Pat, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. I’m sorry that I haven’t been able to get to NC to visit but since mom has been staying with us it has been difficult to get away. Your mom was a wonderful woman and I know she will be missed by all that loved her. I can still picture her kitchen the smell of coffee and the sound of her voice it is a wonderful memory. Please let me know how everyone is doing. My love to all, Candy
