To the Lavenstein family,

I write this for the Sommer family: Al, Jill, Charles and Marni, sending our condolences to you. Your mom was a special person who welcomed us warmly to Oakshire Road, served as a Baltimore grandmother to both of our children, teaching them a bit of piano, impressing them mightily with her playing, lent an ear when they had a story to tell or, just a hug and smile to let them know how she cared.

The folks were wonderful neighbors. She lived a full life and has left us with wonderful memories.

May the God of Abraham comfort the family as we await the fulfillment of seeing Abraham offspring filled the earth like the stars in the heavens. Genesis 15:5,6. God has given us a life span of 70 and 80 years if we are strong. She was truly blessed with longevity. Annie C. Ga.
