Tony,
Thank you so much for the flowers, they bring back many happy memories.
I'm sorry I didn't do more in the future to stop your father, I still have a hard time reconciling the man I knew with what he became. I love you very much and I only want to see you succeed in being the best husband and father you can be. I'll try not to nag too much and give you the space you need, but I'm here for you.
Love,
Mom
