Dear Lynn and family, I was sad to hear of your loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Actually you are in my thoughts often when I tell stories of growing up in Deep River. I hope that you remember me, my maiden name was Kathy Hodge, Alan always said my name as Coffee Hodge. I have such fond memories of spending time with you and your mom always made me feel like one of the family. Again, my thoughts are with you.

To Lynn and your family. I hope that you remember me, my maiden name was Kathy Hodge. I remember Alan used to call me Coffee Hodge. I have so many fond memories of time spent with your family. Your mother always made me feel like one of the kids. I am visiting my sister in Connecticut and she told me of your loss. I am so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Brainard Family,
I am sincerely sorry for your loss. Joan always had such a cheerful demeanor, and a smile for everyone. Just before we both retired from Essex Elemenary on the same year, I was able to find out her secret to macaroni and tuna salad. As it was, I had planned to make it for Lenten Friday dinner, and had warm thoughts of her. Ironic that I had heard of her passing a few days later. IT is comforting to know that we touch many people in many ways.

To John and family, my heart broke to hear of Mom Brainard passing away!!!! Your were right, she was a rock and I will miss seeing her if I happen to pass thru deep river and run in to her, I will miss her x-mas cards and I will always remember her sweetness/thoughtfulness. John....remember when we wold have lunch together at whelen everyday and I would steal your snack that mom packed? She decided that she would just start sending another snack in your lunch for me too, she was too funny, or if she knew I was going to stop by she would make like this dense chocolate cake w/ her homemade frosting, always thoughful! If I ran into your mom and dad, I always thougt how cute they were together, so happy and smiley all the time. She will be truly missed for the way she cared about people and her contagious smile and warm heart.
