So sorry for your loss. My prayers are with the family ❤️
It’s never easy to lose a loved one, especially when it happens suddenly. My condolences go out to Mr. Counts, Kathy Brannan and her family. The memories you all have of Mrs. Counts will last forever and I’m sure her influence over her family will be seen not only when you look to her spirit for guidance but when you least expect it. That is a sign of a wonderful mother.
Bill, Tony, and Kathy,
Our deepest sympathy, love, and prayers are for your family during this difficult time. It is very hard to loose a spouse and especially someone that is a true caregiver in every aspect. Bill, you can live with all the memories that she shared with you during your lifetime together. May God bless you and your family in the coming weeks ahead.
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mom Kathy. I am praying for your dad, you & all of your family. You will always have her in your heart for comfort & strength.

I want to express my deepest sympathies. Mrs. Counts was a lovely woman and I truly enjoyed our visits together at appointments for Mr. Counts. She was such a ray of sunshine and always made me laugh. She will be sorely missed.
