    Dear Jane & girls;
    Please accept my very deepest sympathy at your loss of a wonderful mother and special grandmother. Your mom was an awesome lady. I got to know her more when we both attended exercise times together. We often talked about you Jane and what you did or said or what you were going to be doing. And it was always good! Well usually! We did have a few laughs at your expense on occasion but it was all in good fun. She was always so proud of you and your accomplishments. She spoke often about what the girls, her granddaughters, were up to as well. Their accomplishments brought a sparkle to her eyes. I enjoyed her laugh, her way of looking at life and her spirit. She remained upbeat throughout the whole journey with her cancer. I am so glad I had the privilege of getting to know her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. God bless.
