Dearest Bill - I just wanted to say how sorry I was to see your Mom's obituary in the newspaper this morning. I remember you speaking of her with such great fondness when we worked together those many years ago at Zurich Insurance. I wanted you to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Take care of yourself. Love, Jan
