The amount of support I've received from everyone has been overwhelming. I haven't been able to reply to everyone who has sent me a note or a post, a card or a phone call... a visit or flowers...

...but it all has helped me a lot. Everyone.

Thank you.

Today was the funeral, and everything about it was beautiful. I was amazed with how many people showed to celebrate my Mother's life. All of the planning and thinking is now behind me.

Still not sure where I am at right now, but I am pulling together.

Thanks again to everyone.
