There are no words that could ever be enough to thank you for all you did when my mom passed away.  Your love and support during this sad time has meant so very much.  Everything you did was just perfect and I couldn't be more pleased with all of the arrangements.  And Mom looked so pretty... I never believed that was possible with all she went through.  Thanks again, dear friends and I know Mom would thank you too.
