Dear Susan,
I was shocked to hear about the passing of your mother this morning. I remember her from my childhood weekends spent at Hillside Road. She was always had a smile was very kind and warm to us kids back then.
I saw your mother for the first time in almost twenty years a few years ago and she picked me right out of a crowd and started talking to me as if only a few days had passed by. It was that gift she had to make you feel at ease that will hold a special spot in my heart for her.

Dear, Dear Susan -
How shocked and sad I was when Amanda called with the devestating news about your wonderful Mom. No holiday or family party was ever complete until the two of you would arrive to fill the room with laughter and joy and presents ...and of course always something delicious. Henry, Lilly, Lula, Maeve and Liam have lost their honorary grandmother - a true angel on earth who now has her wings...Dennis and I send you our love and deepest, deepest sympathies - SuSu
