Your mom and I were friends in college and continued to send greeting cards to each other for many years. I’ve tried to get back in touch with her recently but now I see why I wasn’t able to. I have many fond memories of the laughs we shared. I was so impressed with her knowledge, wisdom and kindness. I’m sad I wasn’t able to get back in touch with her again.
