DearPaula and John - deepest sympathy to you and the family for the loss of your mother. She was a lovely lady and my late husband and I enjoyed our friendship with her and your dad very much. It's comforting to think of them now as being reunited in heaven. Thoughts and prayers are with you - Lorett Jocelyn Clarkson asked me to send along her condolences as she recently suffered a stroke and was unable to get to the calling hours. She has the loveliest memories of your mom and dad especially the get-togethers down in Rockport. They were great neighbors, too. Jocelyn said she's thinking of you and sends her love.
