Sweet Sally,
So good to hear from you. I miss you. Please take all the time you need...you
know our prayers and our love are with you. I know Charlie is looking down and
sending his warmth and love to you and you have the wonderful memories. Don't be
afraid to cry and shout and scream if you need to. Grief is something that no one
can do for anyone else and there is no time table so you take all the time you
need. I love you.
