My Wonderful family and friends,

I truly appreciate everything that all of you have done to try and support me: and I cannot begin to thank you all for the messages of love and courage that helped me through the hard times.

I love you ALL for it!!

However, it is All of You who need the courage and acceptance that I’m gone from sight, but hopefully not from mind.

I was at peace (most of the time) during the last few months, and my only concern was for my wonderful son, James.

There are no words that can express my love for him, and I know that he will continue to grow into the man that his family and friends will be proud of.
