Dear Christie,
My kids and I were so very sad to hear of your mom's passing. Every time I saw her at BBL she was so nice and her face lit up every time I mentioned you. I happened to be in the office when the prinicipal asked for a moment of silence to honor her, and so many people were so saddened by the news. I know you brought her much happiness and hope that your memories are a comfort during this difficult time. Thinking of you and your brother,

To Christie,Andrew,Joan and Donna-
I am so sorry for your loss. Pam was more than a co-worker, she was a friend. I have known her for 15 years and thinking about being at BBL without her just makes my heart ache. I talked to her everyday, we laughed, traded craft ideas and spoke of our children. She always gave my kids little treats at the holidays...so generous and kind. Words really cannot express the void that will be left. I hope your memories bring you comfort. She spoke of you all so often and with so much love. You are in my prayers.
