Mr. Shepski, Mary, Tommy,Wayne and Jill:
I was so sad to read of your wife's, mother's death. I only have such wonderful memories of her. She was such a gracious woman and generous with her spirit.
32 years have passed since I last saw you all but every year on Walter's birthday and anniversary of his death I take a moment to remember him and his wonderful family. Goodness leaves a permanent impression and that is what is in my heart.
All of you are in my prayers. Be well.

Dear Uncle Walt and Family,
Aunt Dotty was an extraordinary woman. She was so very generous with her love and spirit and made each and everyone feel so special. But she was the special one! We will miss her grace and happiness dearly. We are heartbroken to be away during this sad time.
All our love to each of you,
Anne, Mike and Emma

Dear Uncle Walter and family,
The saddness is almost overwhelming as we learn of the loss of Aunt Dot. Please know that you are not alone and we send our love and support to you now.
A beautiful, loving woman, she had a way of speaking to you that at once made you feel special, and intimate. I loved the way she would speak my name: "Mary-Rhea", always followed in a low whisper, one of Uncle Jim's... There is comfort in knowing she is with family even now.

Dear Uncle Walter and Family,
It has been too many years but my first impression as a child of Aunt Dottie was that she had such romantic long fingers, painted a vivid red that would stop traffic. .... I loved how she described everything that was lovely as "elegant". She was an elegant and lovely lady who graced us all with her presence. She will be missed forever. God bless you forever.

We only were with Dot a few times but each time was a most pleasurable occasion. Dot and Walter showed what a wonderful sharing experience their love was and allways will be.

Aunt Dot,
I'll never forget the time I split my pants at a wedding reception for one of the March boys. You and Aunt Joey both had a sewing kit which saved the day for me.

Mrs. Shepski, I will always be left with the memory of meeting one of the nicest people God ever created -- I always think of you when I think of Mike & Jill's wedding. You made everyone feel like they were part of your wonderful family.
