Dear Laura, Tom, and Maryellen-- We are all so very sorry for your loss. I know this is a difficult time, but your father has been waiting for her, and now they can be together again. Someday you will see them both again where they wait to welcome you. She is at peace. She will suffer no more. AND I believe you can still talk to her--and she will hear you...you just won't be able to hear the answer. She is smiling on you now. If you need anything...call. Love, the Papianni family.
