Christine, Diane, Shelley, and Cara, I am so very sorry to read of your mom’s passing. What a lovely, gentle and caring woman. I spent a lot of time in East Linton with Shelley, and your mom always made me feel so welcome. I’d run into her periodically and she’d tell me how you all are. She’s such a proud mom! You’re all in my thoughts…
