Dear Bobby and Dubie, it's Nese Nemec here to say you are in my thoughts at this time of your loss. You are the only two I know out of your mother's children, but if you are representative of her handiwork, then what a mighty fine woman she was. Imagine living to 98, what a journey for her, and how wonderful that she had you amazing people to accompany her. May all the lovely things you wished for her in the poem be true for you and yours as well. Much love, Nese
