    Mark and family
    MaryLou,

    Was so shocked and saddened to hear of Chianne’s passing. I am so sorry for your loss. I know she will be deeply missed by all. I was going to come see you but felt awkward and would not know how to act or what to say. I really liked her what little I saw of her when visiting Mary. I know she was very special to you.

    Chianne will live on in everyone she knew and loved. She’ll always be in your mind and in your heart, like all our loved ones are who are gone.

    Love,
    Ruth
