Dear Keith, Debbie and Robin,
I am very sorry to recently learn of your mother's passing. I always was the last to know when we were growing up. Your parents were always so kind and fun to be with, they will always provide me with great memories.

So sorry to hear about your mom's passing. I have great memories of your mother and father (especially after working for so many years w/your dad at Hills). Sincere sympathy . . .

Dear Keith, Debbie and Robin,
So very sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I will never forget her laughter, her keeping Keith and I in line and fabulous breakfasts when sleeping over as a kid.

I was so very sorry to hear about your mom. Her passing marks the end of an era. I'm sure the Meade's and the Flatley's are sharing a few laughs (if not a Tudor Ale) in a far better place. Your mom was a special lady and I loved and admired her.
