    Hello Doug,

    I was very sorry to hear about the passing of your mother. Having experienced it myself, I know losing a parent is extremely difficult. It is also hard to watch your children lose a grandparent. Please accept my condolences and know that my thoughts are with you.

    May you find the strength for your loved ones and you during this trying time,

    Sincerely,

    Marc Rachiele
