Dearest Gary,
My deepest sympathies to you at the loss of your Mother.

I have many fond memories of my "Auntie" Esther and the wonderful family dinners we all had together at your house on Westwood Road. Your Mom always had the most wonderful smile and the most enchanting laugh. I've tried to keep in touch with her when she moved to New Jersey. We shared many delightful phone calls and letters. My Mom, Camille, and I had such a wonderful visit with her before she moved. Somehow with her second move in NJ we lost touch. I know she was very ill and I had hoped she didn't suffer too much.

I tried to find a new address or phone number for you but every one I tried ended with no results.

Please know how very sorry I am that I heard about her passing too late to attend the services. It is so sad to see another member of our family leave us.

Please email me.

With Much Love and Sorrow -
Cousin Marilyn
