Please accept my sympathies at the death of your lovely mother. Madame Robitaille, as we always called her, lived next door to us for years. She was a gracious woman, generous with her time, her stories and her smiles. It was so reassuring to glance out the window and see her sitting in her backyard among the butterflies and roses. It meant all was right with the world. We missed her so much when she moved. Madame was one in a million.
