I was saddened to read about this great loss. Although I didn't really know Quinn, Suzanne and her family were such a major part of our family. She sent me a lovely note when Steve died this past NY's Eve. My children and I will never forget her Mother, Irma, nor her Father and Ronnie. Irma and Dot Jones were life-long best friends. Ann and my daughter, Sarah Jane, played together as children. We cannot come to the service, but our prayers are with all of you.
God Bless Each of You
