Dear Mac,
I will always remember Margaret, first in Dr French's office and then as a neighbor. She was one great gal, and a good friend.

Dear Sue:

I will always remember your mom for her smile and her sense of humor. Though it has been many years since I last saw her, I still have warm thoughts about "Maudie". I am sorry for your loss and want you to know I am thinking about you and your family.

With affection,
Carolyn (Fletke) Rohman
