I wish I had known Cyn better as I was growing up! She was a beautiful person and I'm so glad you and your siblings were able to spend that precious time with her before she passed.

Your writing, Pam, is so beautiful, so poignant. I love the ways you connected to your mother through writing and writers. LMA, Louise Gluck...

and the flowers, the gardens. And the way your family grieved together. Thank you for your piece.
