Dearest Trish,

At the risk of being redundant, I need to tell you what a special lady you are. Your morals, kindness and honor are all intact and we as people should all reflect those qualities you possess. I am grateful that I found you as a friend and so blessed to have been able to share my mother's life with you. It is your contribution to her well being that gave me peace of mind. Having you as a guardian angel made all the difference in the world. My mom thrived and blossomed under your care; I couldn't have asked for more. I knew all the ladies interested you and became part of your "family." We then all became a "family."

I am truly the luckiest daughter that ever lived. She taught me so much and gave me even more. If I could ever be half the charming and graceful lady that she was. I would be happy. You always treated her with dignity and respect. She deserved that. Very few people can offer that by nature—how marvelous that it is second nature to you!!

Thanks for your thoughtfulness, generosity, kindness, and love to us both. You are truly one in a million—simply special!

Much love and gratitude,

Corinne
