Dear Mary and family,
I cannot imagine the painful loss of your sister Margaret. I will pray you and your sisters find comfort and strength in each other as you go on without her. I believe (and I know you do) that the love of God will be ever with you.

Dear Kathleen and Family:

I'm sorry to hear of Margaret's passing and extend my sympathy to you all. Kathleen, you'll hopefully remember me as Helen Michael from Pleasantville and you joined our Beta Beta Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority many years ago. I also attended your wedding to Henry. You may or may not also remember that I stopped by to see you (which turned out to be only a matter of minutes) there in Brigantine sometime between 1990 and 1992 before my husband and I returned to live again in Bel Air. At the time we were living in Pleasantville and working at the Claridge Casino Hotel.

God bless you all.
