She mattered - By a Letter Writer

We had a request recently. The letters were going to a recipient whose mother had passed away. It was emotional reading through the letters, even as a stranger. Then I opened an envelope. And, in large letters that covered the page, it simply said:

She mattered.

It took my breath away. A total stranger reminding this young woman that her mom mattered. What a powerful way to show love. And what a short sentence that says so much.
