Dear Catherine, I was saddened to read of your mothers passing and wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and your family today as you honor her life, a life well lived. I have thought about you often over the years and fondly remember meeting your Mom, she was always so gracious, I always said she could entertain the queen. You were blessed with an amazing family and I am certain her legacy will live on even though the world will never be the same without her. With heartfelt condolences

Sincere condolence on the passing of your mother Jean.
