Sherri and Connie,
Please know that I remember your mother with such fondness.  Your entire family was such a wonderful part of my childhood.  My thoughts are with you.

Dear Sherri,  
Your mom's name just jumped out at me for some reason.  You have been in my thoughts ever since.  I am so sorry for your loss.  You were lucky to have her for so long and I hope you are ok.  I'm not sure you will remember me, but I have wondered about you so many times over the years.  We were good friends in Las Vegas many years ago.  My name was Shari Elwell at that time.  It seems that when we got divorced, I lost track of many dear friends who were part of that old Skaggs group.  It was like starting over.  Your mother's picture looks a little like you did back then.  I remember you coming over with Kelly when she was a baby.  I have pictures of us back then.  It doesn't seem possible that it has been so many years.  I see that you remarried.  I got married again, but I have been a widow for eight years and I had one more child.  I would love to hear from you if you remember me.  My name is Shari Tavey now and my email is www.sharidet@ msn.com, but it will be changing due to changes in my internet provider.  My phone number is 801 263-1410.  I send you my deepest sympathy. 
Sincerely, Shari Elwell tavey

Sherri,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family.  Praying that God would comfort you and give you peace.  Such wonderful pictures of your mom.

Connie
I am so sorry to read about your mom.  Hold on to your memories of her.  Would love to talk to you.  If you ever have time call me at 785-307-0899.
Again, I am very sorry for your whole family.
Take Care
Tena

It is with great sadness that I write this note...Lila Rae was such a vibrant lady with a great sense of humor.  I thoroughly enjoyed my visits with her and Jack over the years.  I, too, will miss her.   Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. 

I regret that I will be unable to attend the funeral service as I will be traveling out of state on Thursday..
