Dear Lenore,

Don't care how old and mature you get it always hurts to lose a parent - they love you no matter what and who couldn't use that?

Will always remember her great whiskey slushes. I still make them in the summer and think of you both each time I do.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

Love
Penny Altmann

Gerry,

You don't know how sorry I am to hear the news. Your mother was an excellent woman, outstanding mom and a devote, virtuous Catholic. She was a great role model to you and your brothers and sisters, and she treated everyone she encountered with love and respect. Your mother was truly one of a kind, Gerry, but I'm sure you already know that.

Please express my sincere sympathies to your whole family, and let them know I wish I could be there to celebrate her life with them.
