Our commitment to you is unwavering and unwaveringly total. When our mother, Linda Mills, passed away suddenly on March 14th, our lives underwent a sea change that was major in nature. This transition has continued right up until the present day. Her departure brought about a change that could not be reversed in the course that our lives would take. The absence that her death will leave in our lives is something that we will never be able to fill or make up for. We will never be able to make up for it. We are not going to be able to make up for it in any way.
In addition to the fact that she was the most perfect mother that anyone could ever want to have, our children regarded themselves to be exceedingly fortunate to have such a lovely grandmother throughout their lives. In the history of the world, no one could ever hope to have a mother who was more wonderful than she was.
She held Emily, Rebecca, Nathaniel, Noah, Alexa, Marissa, and Sam in the highest respect possible within her group of friends and acquaintances. She also held Sam in the same regard. Her heart was very close to each and every one of them that were in her life.
At Temple Shalom, the funeral service will be held every Wednesday beginning on March 20th at eleven o’clock in the morning. This will be the beginning of the service. The Wednesdays are the days that the service will be held.
On the evening of Wednesday, March 20th, beginning at four o’clock in the evening and continuing until eight o’clock in the evening, Linda’s home will be the location of a Shiva ritual that will pay tribute to the deceased. In addition, the service will be held on Thursday, March 21st, beginning at eleven o’clock in the morning and continuing until two o’clock in the afternoon.
On Saturday, the open house will also take place from one to two o’clock in the afternoon, and on Friday, it will take place from four to eight o’clock in the evening. Both of these times are in the afternoon. There will be an additional open house held in Chapel Hill on Sunday, beginning at five o’clock and continuing until eight o’clock in the evening.
This decision was made when it was decided that the open house would take place. This open house will be held at the residence of Jon from this point forward. As a result of this loss, we have been left in a condition of great grief throughout the entirety of our lives. Actually, it is Eric and Jon working together.
