My mother died last night at Hartford Hospital, as I was en route to visit her. Caregivers were kind as she went from my sister's loving arms to God's. Mama knew you were all praying for her comfort, and that meant as much to her as it does to me. Asante sana.
I am writing from Heathrow and will be with family in New England for a couple of weeks, doing whatever I can to help. Meanwhile, please know that this Christmas, especially, I am grateful for your friendship and for all of God's blessings.

Dianne,
I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing! I'm glad that you are able to go home and be with your family, though. Blessings to you as you travel and to you and your family as your grieve.
Peace,
