Sorry to hear about your mother. Several years ago, I had an accident in front of her home, and she was so very kind to me.
Just wanted you to know I was thinking of you and your family. It’s been a long time since I have seen you-since we graduated.
Take care and God Bless,
Bill, I am so sorry to hear of your dear wifes passing.
