Dear Mark and family,
I remember your mom so fondly. Her enthusiasm, her care, and her beauty. She dressed all the Waban girls so lovingly. She cared for her own children with the fierce love of a tiger. She was a role model for us: strong, independent, and kind--a woman far ahead of her time.
I send you my deepest condolences; I will pray for her peaceful passage.
With much respect,
Patti Covich

Dear Ruthie, Mark, and Alan,

I remember Cousin Shiffie as elegant, warm, and caring. I loved going to the "Small Fry" shop when I was a kid - your mom was a successful businesswoman in a time when that was an anomaly. She was a great lady.
I am so sorry for your loss.
