Dear Gil,
I am truly sorry for your loss, as that of your father. I remember your mother with great fondness, as a woman of great character, wisdom, knowledge, determination and heart.
May you have the strength and courage to go through this sad passage and to help your father. I trust you will have the spirit and fortitude to follow your mother's wishes and to honor her memory.
Your mother always adored and admired you with all her soul, I am certain she continues to be proud of you and to love you and of course Ezra, her partner in life.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help or support you, I am and will always remain your friend, your little sister.
With all my compassion and sincerest condolences,
Much Love
Elisabeth
Ima’s Last Journey
From: Elisabeth Tepper September 14 2014
Dear Gil and Ezra,
My warmest thoughts are with you today, may you find peace when bringing Ima to her final resting place.
May your emotions of sorrow and sadness leave some space for maintaining love present.
Ima is no longer here in her physical form, but she remains very present in your hearts, as well as the hearts of the people she touched throughout her life. She continues her existence through your memories, actions and contributions in life. I am confident, she will maintain her guidance and support in all of your thoughts and actions, and you will go on feeling all of the love that she gave to you throughout the years.
ay you pursue to honor and cherish her as the exceptional mother, beautiful wife, outstanding partner, strong supporter, faithful friend and unique human being that she was throughout her existence.
I know that Ruth stays present in my story....
With much Love,
Gil's "Little Sister"

Dear Gil,
I am very sorry to hear about your father's reaction and distress, but relieved to hear that he has recovered and is back at home.
Ezra must have felt a tremendous loss with Ruth’s departure, and a part of his being and heart has been taken away from him.
May he find the strength to continue with the memory of his life partner.
May you have the serenity to support your father and heal from your loss as well.
Many thoughts and much love to both your father and you,
Big hug,
Your little sister, Elisabeth
