  10. I wish I could be there with you all, it breaks my heart that we lost your mother. I can’t come for the service because I am not well but please know that I am there in spirit and I love all of you. Your mother was like a mother to me, always understanding and loving in our conversations when I was growing up. Just talking to her always made me feel better, she was so compassionate. Via con Dios most beloved one, until we meet again! <3 Randi
