Robin,
My heart breaks for you. Aunt Iris was a beautiful, graceful woman. She was the epitome of a classic southern woman with her sweet smile and gentleness. She will be so missed by all of us. I wish I could have come to see her once more. You have my deepest heartfelt sympathy. If you need anything, please call me. We love you.
