To Nancy, Jay and family,
My deepest sympathies to you at this time. Trudy Fogelberg was always so chipper and happy every time I saw her over the years. Being one of the younger kids in the "Z" clan, I remember your mom being such a dear and good friend to my Mom and Dad over the years. May her joy and kindness continue through you and your families. Deepest sympathies, Jane Zugschwert

Nancy and Jay. I was so shocked at my mom's funeral when your mom said good bye to me. Now it is a moment I will cherish. Such wonderful memories I have about Trudy and Betty who were life long friends. I laugh to wonder what they are up to now. Nancy, you know you have my love, especially at this time. Jay, know that my heart is with you as well. Nancy, I wish we'd had the chance to delight you mom with just one more pot and pan concert. Buffy
