Dear cousin Donald, I share your sadness and pray for strength, healing and peace. I know the hole in your heart right now and can tell you that the pain is less sharp as time goes on. The hole is always there but as you crawl out of it you will soon be walking around that hole. You soon will be comforted by all of your mom’s laughter and love and wonderful memories. My Aunt Bev always there for me. Peace and love. I love you always. Strength Donald.
