Dear Diane & Paul,
My thoughts are with you both and your extended family. Your mother was a wonderful person who always gave a smile and hello to my family.

My heartfelt sympathy for your loss.
My family lived across the street from Mrs. Tuscher-Joyce for many years until we moved in 1981. All of her children except Steven were out of the house by then so we never got to know you all, but Gerry was a great lady and she will be missed.

My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you and your families. She was a special lady and will surely be missed.
