To the Haddad family,
Oh my goodness, I remember Emma! She was a regular customer at Meijers on Center Rd. where I am a cashier.
She drove her frail little self in and shopped. It took her time, but she wrote her checks out and made sure everything was perfect. She was one of the most pleasant customers I've ever waited on and I'm sorry she's gone.
Please accept my deepest sympathies.
