A Letter from Lila Riemann
Dear Donni,I’m sorry it took so long to get out this note. I appreciate so much that you took the time to help Dewey and me. I really believe that knowing someone cared enough to fight for him kept him focused on something besides his illness.
I think it wasn’t until his pain became worse, his breathing became so labored and the knowledge that the chemo was not helping that he knew he couldn’t face the struggle any longer. He hated the fact that he had to be taken care of especially since he was always the strong one.
He left this world knowing I would be taken care of and I pray that gave him peace. I appreciate all you have done to make my life more bearable.
I miss Dewey everyday but I’m also grateful for a loving family and for not having a financial burden at this time of my life.
God Bless You,
Lila Riemann
