Oh my God, Annette. I am stunned and saddened at the same time. You have me in tears here. I thought for sure she'd make it, I just couldn't imagine "one of our own" being gone, I guess. I really do not know what to say. Please accept my deapest sympathies. You, your husband, and Lacey will be in my thoughts.

Rest easy, sweet Mandy. You are missed. I will light a candle for you today for your journey to the bridge. I have two boys up there waiting to welcome you.
