Dear Nan, Kay and Bobby, I am so sorry about your Mother's passing, but my memories of her are so happy and fun. Although that has been many years ago, I will always remember my visits to St. Simons during college, where she and I would drink coffee and talk early, early in the morning after Nan and I had spent a late night out on the town. She was a joy to spend time with! My wish is that your years and years of wonderful memories of your time with her--will sustain you now and always. My thoughts are with you in Savannah these next couple of days. Love, Mackie
