Not sure what to say?

The Diligent Family,
So sorry to hear about your Mom, my family's prayers are with you all. Sharing Sandy Pond with your family every summer was the highlight of my year. You managed the "Lot" so we always had a ball field to go to. Your Mom was the greatest, always fun to be around and yet kept us in line.

Mike Savage and the many Savages of Sandy Pond.

TO DONNA AND JACK'S children and grand children. Always remember the times your MOM and Dad showed you as you were growing. They certainly did a wonderful job raising all of you. It's time for them to be together again. I will not forget their friendship toward me. Be at peace and keep those memories.

Lynne, so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. I miss you!

Janine and Frank. We are so sorry for your loss. Hold onto all the wonderful memories. You are in my prayers.

David and family,
We just heard today about your Mom passing away. Please know how sorry we are. We have many fond memories of her and times spent with your family. We are still in Florida, so will not be able to attend the services, but we are with you in spirit and you will all be in our thoughts and prayers!
All of our love,
Dan and Kathy DeRose

To the Diligent family- you may not remember me- I am Mariann Beach Porter- my parents were Ken and Ann Beach. I can recall times with your family at Sandy Pond and the Bayview Hotel. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

john, even though i never knew your mom until she came to st. camillus, i could tell right away she was a wonderful lady. she was one of my favorite residents, and i'll always remember singing with her in the lounge...her smile really could light up a room. she will be missed, and i'll miss seeing you pushing her in the hallways. peace to you and yours
