Dear Tammy and Nancy,
When my Christmas card to your mother was returned, I knew there must be a problem because she never missed birthday nor Christmas cards. Your mom taught my husband, Jack Mann, how to ice skate in Alexandria, VA about 1944/45. Your parents were great friends with his parents and when we moved to California in 1975, we immediately became another generation of fast friends. Your mother is the reason that I joined DAR and now I am a national officer -- what a surprise! She was one of the warmest ladies I have ever known and I will miss receiving her lovely newsy cards.

Tammy and Nancy...
My thoughts and prayers are with you while I remember your mom fondly. She brought a smile to everyone she touched, and her daughters carry on that tradition. You are both a credit to her kindness, joy, and grace. She will be greatly missed.

Tam and Nute:
I remember your mom as always gracious, loving and full of cheer, a one in a million classy lady and mother. Be proud of her, celebrate her life and know that she is in a much better place now. And recognize that her spirit still lives here in the presence and persona of her two lovely and gracious daughters.

Dear Jean:
My "second mom"...I so enjoyed our times together...especially when I rode my horse to your house on Mandel Street and you made Tammy and I Cheese and Pickle Relish Sandwiches, let me sleep over and swim in your pool, and introduced me to Stouffer's Spinach Souffle! I love you, Sue

My prayers are with Tammy and Nancy, the living legacy every Mother would want to
leave to the world...two devoted daughters. Peace! Love,
