Dear Janice and Family,
I was so sad to hear of your Mother’s passing. She and your Dad and my parents were good friends for a long time. I will always remember the good times we had playing together when we were little. I know you will greatly miss your Mom as I do mine. Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Darlene Apel Ervin
