Amanda, I've met you a couple of times at the workplace, years ago. She was a very vibrant, sweet, loving person. Not a mean bone in her body. I'm very very sorry. She always told me she loved me when we got off the phone. She will be missed.

Claudia took me under her wing when I started a new job in Santa Monica 17 years ago - and she never let go. From being work buddies to best buddies, I treasure every bit of the time we had, both great and sad. Claudia, my heart will never let go of you - you are the truest of friends: honest, loyal, and generous. My thoughts and prayers are with Amanda, Lorraine, and Paula. Your loss will be deeply felt by them, as well as the rest of us who love and miss you already.

We all sorely miss our dear Claude here in the office. She's dedicated, hardworking, vibrant, jolly, and caring. Her humor made the workplace alive and the workload much easier to handle. She was our walking buddy during breaks, and we learned a lot about how she's lived (and survived) a great life. Her passing comes as a surprising loss to our firm, her family, and to us personally. We will always dearly remember her memory in our hearts. Susie says that one of these days she'd fulfill her promise to Claude - she'd pick up a sitting duck during a walk around the office.
