Dear Michele, Pam and Carl
 I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Aunt Loretta and when I saw her picture she really didn’t change at all. Still a beautiful woman. As hard as it is for us to say goodbye I’m sure for them it’s exciting to say hello again to all their family and friends that went before them. I always had good memories of your mom. I am sending you all lots of love and (((hugs)))
