Dear Friends,

I can't say how much all your words and kind thoughts mean to me and my family. A simple 'thank you' just doesn't cover the gratitude we feel for each and every one of you. My mother always said that a burden shared is a burden lifted. Isn't it amazing how smart your parents become as you get older?

The kids and I are working on 'Clyde's Book', and we're drawing pictures and writing down our favourite memories of him. I thought it would be a good thing for the kids; but, to tell the truth, I think it's better therapy for Mom.

With a grateful heart, Áine
