Dear Brent and Family,
I remember your mom at the apartment building. Doing the rounds. Checking to see if everyone was okay.
Seeing her and saying ” Hi Mrs. Froats” and she would say you know my name, it is Marion. And I would reply ” yes Mrs. Froats . She would just laugh at me. She will be missed.
Again we are sorry for your loss.
