Dear Robin and Randy,
It seems like yesterday that we were roller skating on Saturday mornings, listening to your mom's Peggy Lee records, buying snacks at the little store nearby. How time flies! Your mom was always sweet and kind to me. Take care, Jill

I know how hard this is for you. Not used to the idea of losing your Dad, now grieving your Mother. These are tough times, indeed. But, there is no one stronger than you, Robin. You have the deepest faith and that is what will get you through; your faith and your friends. You are more loved by your friends than anyone I know. We are all here for you. Let yourself lean on us. Love and sympathy to Nat & Terry.

So many memories ......from an old friend
Dear Robin & Randy,
Words alone cannot convey my deepest sympathy in the loss of your Mom. I have warm, wonderful memories spending LOTS of time at your house with you & your Mom, with much laughter & crazy adventures. She was so much fun to be around!! With the loss of your Dad so close, I'm sure the days ahead will be difficult. But keeping your heart full of memories will give you strength in the days ahead. It's been tough since I lost my Mom last April but what saddens me the most is another one of our parents generation is gone. Please know David & I are keeping you & your families in our thoughts & prayers.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Debbie
