To Mrs. Jenn,
I’m so sorry to read about the passing of your mother.  I didn’t no her but I certainly got to no you and you are an AWESOME LADY.  And I’m sure your mother was too.  Tell Jackson and the rest of your family that you are in my thoughts and prayers.  Hope to see you the first day of school.
