We offer our sincere sympathy to your family on the passing of Lil. She was a unusually caring and thoughtful person - full of life and a wonderful friend to my Mother (Eleanor). She will be missed but certainly not forgotten. May your many cherished memories of her sustain you at this difficult time.

Dear Cousins,

So, so sorry to hear about your mom. So, so sorry that we can't be with you today. Mary's out of country, and we have about half our rooms occupied with no help. We're with you in thoughts and prayers. Hope we can get together soon.
