"Dear Jack and Selena,
You were wonderful to us and everything about Cypress Lawn is tasteful and felt exactly right. Mom was quite the woman and I’m sure she was giving a thumbs-up to all the happenings. I’m sure she loved the rituals and festivities. She loved gatherings so much – and what a perfect reception room. I celebrate her life instead of thinking of her death. How nice it was to have you, Selena, and MaryAnn and all the others who helped guide us through a perfect day. We are grateful for your courteous attention to detail and your respect for our mother and us, her family, and friends."
