Not sure what to say?

Dear Milt(ok, in person I'd probably still call you Mr. Port), Karyn, Ronny, and Laurel:

It seems like just yesterday when I was with all of you whiling away the time by: pitching pennies, doing needlepoint with your wife/mom and Mrs. Kovarsky, playing games, stoking poker (whoops..that was only the dads), babysitting for you "youngins", meeting at your house as you and DeeDee sponsored our Courtland Park pre-teen and teen clubs, watching Karyn and Laurel become great skaters,...

Dear Port family,
My sincerest and deepest sympathy for your loss. My thoughts are with the family in this challenging time.

Sincerely,
Ali Helfgot

Dear Mr. Port, Karyn, Ronnie and Laurel,

Mom and Dad called me Sunday to share the news. I am so sorry for your loss; though many years have gone by I still remember our years in Courtland Park. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. Please take care of each other.

Love, Lori Dospil(-Farley)

Dear Milt, Karyn, Ronnie, and Laurel:

Please accept my thoughts and prayers. I have many fond memories of your mother. She was "real", warm, and a very giving person.

I wish your family peace and comfort in the days ahead. May G-d be favorable to you.

Dear Milt, Karyn, Ronnie & Laurel,

We heard the news this evening of "Auntie" Deedee's passing -- Susan and I are so saddened by your loss. I will always cherish my memories of Deedee, from way back "in the days," as she wrangled an unruly bunch of Gerber and Port children, to the honor of Milt's and her presence at our wedding, to her involvement in the lives of the next generation of Gerber kids. We wish we could be with you during this difficult time; know that our thoughts...

SINCERELY,
JOAN O'NEILL (SECRETARY TO AL SCHULTZ)

To All Families an Friends of Deedee.

Our hearts are filled with sorrow and pain with the loss of Deedee.

But remember, we all had the privilidge of experiencing what I call the Deedee effect.

Her heart was filled with unconditional love, joy, friendship and especially kindness to all that crossed her path in life.

I am saddened by our loss, but rejoice in the fact that I knew her and she was a friend. How lucky for all those who...
