Bill and I know how sad you all are at losing your mother/grandmother and want you to know our thoughts are with you. I had the good fortune to spend time with Clara for the short time I worked with Marcia and during some holiday celebrations.

Dear Carolann, Marcia, Peggy, Michelle and Jen:
So sorry to hear about Aunt Clara. I will always have fond memories of the many times spent at your house in Kenmore. "Aunt Clara" showing me how to crochet, playing the 45 rpm. records, etc. My prayers are with you at this time. She's at peace now and with your Dad.

Love cousin Nancy

Your Mom was a wonderful person who touched many hearts she will truly be missed by all. It will be the little things that you will remember, the quiet moments, the smiles, the laughter. And although it may seem hard right now, it will be the memories of these little things that help to push away the pain and bring the smiles back again. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this most difficult time.
