Dear Linda. I am so sorry that I never had the opportunity to visit you in the rest home after you took a turn for the worse. I know you are with your loved ones now in the hereafter and I hope you look down with a smile on all of us at the Celebration of your life on Saturday. You are no longer burdened with terrible trials. I feel happy for you even though I am sad not to have been able to say a proper goodbye. Love, Andrea
