My Dear Renee, It saddens me to write this condolence message again as I'm not sure you received my first email to you personally, on the morning of hearing of your moms passing. My thoughts originally where to be able to come to the service for your mom. Today it's just not possible to be in two places at once or I would be there holding your hand today. The tribute to your mom, sharing treasured times with your family, will bring some comfort for all that surrounds you. May the light of her memory look down over you in the coming weeks and I will make some time to share a tribute to her with you when things have settled a bit. Pat had a mass said for your mom last week at his church in his small town in Alberta. The Priest there is from Michael Power High School. The rain today falls outside as the tears do when writing you this message...I am so sorry I couldn't make it today for a number of different reasons it's not possible to make the trip. I will plant a garden in my new home when we finally move for all who passed this year, your mom included so that they will be remembered. Just name her flower and the colour! I will speak with you over the next couple days as I'm sure you have been busy. Sending Lizzy, your sister Becky, and Yourself a big hug from me. May your loving Mom rest in peace with your Dad. Those pictures of them on their wedding day are priceless. Talk with you soon, Andrea M.
