[Sca-cooks] Lady Bertha's loss

[Raphaella DiContini]

My good lady, I will definately keep your beloved husband in my thoughts and prayers, and you as well. 

Unfortunately I don't think I'll be able to bring you bread and meals to tide you over until things have settled a bit, but my thoughts are with you and you are not alone. 

In solemn service, 
Raffaella / Heather
