Dear Tony and Family,
I am sorry about your mother, grandmother and sister. You and your family are in my thoughts. Sandra was always a very nice person with a great smile. I will never forget that she always included me as one of her nieces which meant a great deal to me growing up.
Please forgive me but I am unable to attend her services ever though I would like to be there. For me it is just to soon after my mom. It's getting better but I still struggle. It will also get better for you. God Bless.
