So Sorry to hear of your mothers passing.  Cannot believe it was just hours from my moms.  She was a wonderful lady and we all loved Dolly very much.  She was also my godmother and one of my kids godmother. 

Know that our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.  I am very sorry I cannot make the services because of being off work all week for my mothers passing, I could not get off another day, but she will be in my thoughts. 

It is hard to believe two life long friends left us on the same day….they are now together and I can hear your mom’s wonderful laughter.

All my love, and best wishes.
