    I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. She and I worked together when I was in high school and had so many laughs, so much fun together. She was very special to me and I have always remembered her with the best memories and love. My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

    So sorry for your great loss. I knew Fred and Alba from Holy Family Church. They both were nice people. Your mom was always so beautiful. She will be missed. So young looking. I had no idea she was in her 90's. My prayers are with you during this great time of sorrow.
