Condolence: Mary has been such a good friend to me for the last 12 years. I find myself starting to call to check on her and offer to bring lunch over for us to eat together. Then I realize she is in heaven, and for now I will have to rely on all the memories we shared. I am sad but so happy she is now at peace and not struggling anymore. Your mother was so special and will never be forgotten. I loved her dearly.
