You are in my thoughts and prayers today. I used to love going as a young teen to your Mothers' Nancy, hanging out with Carol, and your Mom was always so nice to me, and always had time for every child and grandchild that wandered in and out her open door. She was a special Mom. I pray that God gives you all the courage to get through the hard days ahead, and serenity in the beautiful memories that will keep her in your heart forever. You will be in my prayers today tomorrow and always. My deepest sympathy ..your sisterinlaw and Aunt..Lesley (Ellis) Meisner
