Dear Lynne and your entire family,
I am so very sad to hear about the sudden and unexpected loss of your beloved Mom.
I can vividly remember playing over at your home on Vine Street in Winnetka when we were kids. I had no idea that your beautiful mother was only 22 years older than us. Wow! Your parents were a beautiful couple that raised a remarkable family.
Then you moved to Rosewood in Winnetka and your family got bigger.
I will treasure the day that I went up to visit you at your parents condo on the Exmoor property during a past reunion. I will really treasure that.
We now live on the Skokie CC golf course and would love to see you when you are next in town, along with your Dad.
My love goes out to you and your family,
Love Kathy Petersen Paleczny
