Valerie and family, I think of your mother every time I bring out my Christmas decorations and place the little English cottage out. It was always a pleasure to visit with her in the office. What an amazing woman. My thoughts are with you as you celebrate her life. May you be comforted by each other and your memories of times together. Dr. Tracey
