Valerie, Mark & Marisa Distance made our visits far and few between. However the visits we enjoyed were memorable and full of vibrancy provided by your mom. Her infectious laugh still resonates as if yesterday. I find solace watching the tribute as the family clearly has provided her comfort. I pray the next few days go as well as expected and you eventually can smile with the memories. You are in our prayers. Dan & Liz Nemeth
