Rest In Peace dear friend.

We all offer anyone working at our residence water, how about fresh tea/coffee? It’s just boiled water. A couple of cookies? My waistline won’t miss those. My spouse makes lunch for all if home when people are working. Very small gestures of welcome and comfort. Small effort small deal.
