Dear Ralph,
I’m not sure you remember meeting me, but I am Francines’s “relative,” through marriage. Her brother married my sister. I have known Francine since 1963. We connected after the tragedy of the house fire, that took my sister and her brothers life. It was so nice to be Francine’s friend again after so many years. Francine and I shared the joy of loving our cats, and decorating for the holidays. I will miss her
I was devastated to learn of her passing . We spoke not long ago, and she told me she was responding well to her treatment, I was shocked to see the obituary.
Please know that I am thinking of you during this difficult time. May our merciful God give you comfort.
Mary Ellen Martine Lewis
