You and I would sit in your dressing room working exercises in the book I bought you on New Math because you wanted to be able to help them with their homework. Ronnie wanted to go horseback riding for his birthday, so I took all four boys to the Griffith Park riding stable. He was so special, curious, attentive and interested in all things Scorpio. I had him reading about scorpions and astrology. He was hungry for knowledge. I will never forget my time with him, nor my time with you. You were a loving mother, and my heart breaks for you. May his journey be swift and filled with grace and ease. And may you be granted the grace of a peaceful heart. ❤️🙏🏻❤️.”
