Brian... I was sorry to hear of your mother''s death, although I never met her, I''m sure she was a fine woman AND she raised a wonderful son. If James were still alive, he would add his sympathy, too. He always spoke of you working for him at the restaurant with high praise.

Words alone can only tell the very smallest part of all the sympathy we have for you and your family. More sympathy is with you now than words alone can tell you. For those who share your friendship share your loss as well. Our prayers and love are with you and your family at this very difficult time. I know she was a wonderful person because she raised a wonderful son. We love you & Connie.

We only met Mrs. Alexander once but she was a very sweet person and by listening to her you could tell she enjoyed working in and outside her home. Mr. Alexander was very attentive to his wife and you could see the love they had for each other. We are sorry for your loss but I know you have fond memories to cling to.
