Message: So sorry to hear about your mother's death. Death sure leaves a big hole in one's heart and even though you miss them a lot, you have to be happy for them that they are back with their creator and he will take good care of them. I've been busy doing the rural mail route every day for the last 2 months as I'm the sub for our regular carrier who got hurt pretty bad and hopefully will be released to go back to work soon. I didn't want this as a full time job! Anyway, take care of yourself and hope you are doing well.
