A word so tender as MOTHER.....

Godspeed May. As a young girl, our Kurkjian clan called you Mary. Your mother suffered such sorrows, 3 husbands all dying tragically and leaving her with one offspring from each, Flash, you, & Billy. Sorrow revisited you in losing Joyce. Yet you were always there with George for all of us in time of need. My mother Agnes was Flash's first cousin and they were the only survivors of their Kurkjian generation from Kigi. You will be missed. Deepest sympathy, Bob Shvodian
