Michael and Laurie (I still think of you as Laurie) - I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. Your Mom - and your Dad - were both very special people in my life. They were both nothing less than role models as parents, friends, neighbors, and advisors. How lucky were the Hangacsi's when you all moved in next door! The relationship was so warm, casual, friendly, and respectful. I'm not sure if she mentioned it, but I spoke to your Mom about a year ago, and she was just as engaging, funny, happy, and witty as ever. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. She asked, and I sent a few pictures. My most sincere wishes to you both and your extended families. She was just a wonderful person.
