I am so very sorry to hear of Stormey's passing. She was a lovely, joyful lady whom I knew first as a client, but she quickly embraced me as a friend, almost like family, always happily sharing with me her love of life, art and animals. She also shared her love and adoration of her children every time I saw her. They were everything to her and filled her to overflowing. She was an incredibly talented artist as well and I have several of her pieces that will be forever cherished. Thank you Stormey, for living large and sharing so much of your beautiful self with everyone you met. You will be long-held as a fond and happy memory full of life, love, laughter, and deep joy.

Deepest sympathies on the passing of your wonderful mother. Her smile was beautiful and contagious. She was generous and happy to share the pool, PB&J sandwiches, and those authentic school desks in the basement. We sure did have a wonderful life on Lotusdale. All the best to all who loved her, Jenny We missed seeing the obit, otherwise, some of us would have come to share our sympathies in person.

Mrs. Sheridan was such a great mom neighbor. Although you kids were older than me, so I didn't "play with you", your mom would still invite me in or bring me lemonade on a hot day. It was fun to play on your big front yard or swim in your pool. Your parents were great. Won't forget their sweet smiles!
