Friends & Family,

It is with incredible sadness we share with you that our Mom passed late yesterday afternoon. There has never been a battle our Mom couldn't win, but unfortunately, this one was bigger than even her. Just six very short weeks ago, we learned we had a long journey ahead of us...that journey ended up being much shorter than we could have ever imagined. We learned on Wednesday that the cancer had taken over our Mom's liver to such an extent that treatment was no longer a viable option. Fortunately for all of us, we spent her last days together as a family sharing stories and love. Our Mom went extremely peacefully. We know she's here with us today watching over us as we continue to honor her great legacy in the beautiful home she and Hunt created for all of us to fill with many memories.

We will post another blog as soon as the details have been finalized. At this time, we are tentatively planning a visitation / memorial for our Mom on Friday in Peoria.

We can't begin to express our sincere thanks for all your prayers and love. Please keep them coming as we need them now more than ever.

Much love,
Bridget & Bob, Patrick, Hank & Rebecca
