Please accept my sincere condolences on the death of your Mom and sister. I remember her so well growing up and spending time with your family. She loved to have a good time and had the greatest laugh in the world. She lit up a room and will always be remembered fondly.

We, along with my parents, enjoyed far to many to count holiday celebrations together.
