To Uncle Art and my cousins, words honestly cannot express my sympathies to you. Nothing I can say can take away the pain of your loss..Auntie Jen was a wonderful person and so much fun to be around. I still remember when she would have me over the house in Connecticut. For the short time I lived up there she really showed me the beauty and the fun that could be had there. I have fond memories of going to Block Island with her, seeing snow for the first time at her house and I always thought it was so cool that she was from England. I just wish that I could have been as close to her in my more mature years as I was in my younger years. I love her very much and always remember when the pain gets to much to bare that she is always with you. She is like the wind, you may not see it but you can feel it. I love you guys very much!

Now there is someone well qualified to take care of the gardens in heaven!

All my regards,

I am so for your loss. I read Jennifer's obituary in the New London Day this morning, so sad! She is finally at peace and the suffering is over for her, but not her family. You and Jenn had a long life together and I sure there a many wonderful moments you can reflect on. Jennifer was always kind to me and I will always remember her for that. If there is anything I can do for you or the girls please call me, and please stop in and see me the next time you are in Connecticut .
Deepest regards and sympathy
