Mark:I had met Alice through my sister-in-law in Orange. She was a lovely person. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
As Alice has crossed the threshold to another state of being so you cross the threshold of loss and grieving. May you find the threshold low and the journey brief until your steps become light and the sun warms your heart again.
Sorry to hear of your loss. In my thoughts and prayers.

We are especially fond of nurses our son, Charlie, helped care for her at UVAand know that she must have been an awesome nurse.
