  1. Dr. Molina –

    My heartfelt sympathy goes out to you and your family at this time. Tami informed me of your mom’s passing and sent me this link. What a beautiful mother you had — I saw the resemblance immediately. You have the same warm smile. I pray that God will continue to bless and smile on you and your family.
