Dear Julie,
I just don't know what to say. I just found out about your Mom's passing and I am just devastated. I met your Mom many years ago and it was like gaining a sister. We always shared stories about my only son and her only daughter. I know how thrilled she was when you met Phillip and then became engaged. My heart goes out to you and Phillip and the rest of the family. She will be missed greatly. I feel that I have lost not only a lovely friend, but part of my heart. May all your wonderful memories help ease the pain of this sad, sad loss.

I'm so sorry for your loss, I was away when your mom passed...she was such a kind woman who made me feel so welcomed to the Uptown area when I began working at all on the road some 7 years ago. Loved popping in and chatting with her.
Will be missed

Julie,
Your mom was such a warm and welcoming woman. I was in her shop the week of March 24 to purchase a gift. We had a lovely visit and she was talking about you and your upcoming wedding. She spoke with such love for you and your fiance,Phillip. She said he is a wonderful young man and how happy he makes you. You will need to lean on him and your faith to carry you through this most difficult time. May your dear mom rest in the Lord's arms.

Julia,
You don't know me and we've never met, but I knew your mom many years ago. I was looking up another obituary and ran across your moms name. In the early 1980's your mom and I used to go to the same place to do ceramics. We had many laughs and lots of fun and we always sat together. I am so sorry you've had to go through this and losing both parents. I will say a little prayer for her and you. I wish you peace and may God's loving hands cradle your heart as you begin the healing process. She will always be with you.
With my sympathy,

I'm so very sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She was a kind, generous and very genuine person. She always had a smile on her face and was patient and caring with whoever came into her shop. Park Ridge has lost a shining star. You and your family are in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Tricia Williams
