So after the death of a parent, an old, close childhood friend that lives far away sends you a message saying "your mom was a second mother to me" and it means nothing...?

It means something to me. So I continue to use the service.



Those people sent letters and sympathy cards - actual handwritten ones! And they called too - actually spoke on the telephone. I know, it's a little wacky, but it works.


It's the quality of the thought, not the medium for which it's conveyed.


Maybe he means that the person who said "your mom was a second mother" also came to the funeral?
