Me deepest condolences to the family of Mrs. Kanitz. The world marvels at her strength and longevity. The Bible at Psalm 90:10 calls it "special mightiness". May the promise found at Isaiah 26:19 bring you comfort and hope as you celebrate a life well lived.

Our hearts are filled with sadness at your loss of Aunt Ruth. We can not imagine the pain you feel now but we wanted to let you know that our loving thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I have many good memories of her summer visits with Kay to Cudahy as well as my visit to Richmond many years ago. She will be missed. †
