DEAR EILEEN, PAULA & JIM

WE CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MUCH BUNTY MEANT TO OUR FAMILY.
OUR MOTHER DOREEN COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER FRIEND FOR OVER 60 YEARS.
BUNTY COULD BE CALLED UPON AT ANY TIME TO HELP WITH ANY PROBLEM.
SHE WAS SUCH A LOYAL PERSON AND ALWAYS STUCK BY HER WORD.
OVER THE YEARS THEY GOT INTO LOTS OF TROUBLE AND HAD MANY LAUGHS.
BUNTY WAS SO PROUD OF HER FAMILY AND RIGHTLY SO.
WE ARE SURE MOM WAS WAITING FOR BUNTY AND TOLD HER THE COFFEE POT WAS ON AND THEY COULD HAVE A CIGARETTE TOGETHER WITHOUT THE KIDS BUGGING THEM TO QUIT.

BUNTY WAS A TREASURE AND WILL BE MISSED.
WE SEND OUR CONDOLENCES AND LOVE.

LOVE ANN , ARLENE & ADELLE
THE ZANNET GIRLS
