We are so saddened by the loss of our (great) aunt. She was a great woman and we always loved it to see her. The times that she and Tom came to visit us in The Netherlands were very special for us.

We're so sorry to hear of Mary Ann's passing. We have great memories with her from Florida in February...hard to believe that was only 5 months ago and now you're going through this. We will forever cherish that time we had with you, Uncle Tom, and Mary Ann. Our continued thoughts and prayers are with you. We love you both very much!
