Not sure what to say?

Paula,
I am sorry to hear about your mother.
She was a really good person.
I met her at Chelsea Assisted Living.
She was a good friend of mine.

Emma was a wonderful human being. She was my aunt's best friend and guardian angel at the Elms. Her caring smile and generous spirit will be greatly missed. I will cherish my scarves and my memories of Emma forever.

We met Emma at the Elms while visiting our mother, Marie.
We were impressed with all her beautiful handiworks, and with her warm and friendly personality. She cheered other residents, and worried when they were not doing well.
We offer our deepest sympathy to your family. We will miss her lovely smile.

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of my Auntie Emma. I remember walking down to Wood Ave with my Grandma and Grandpa (Pat and Larry Mikesh) to get the newspaper and we would stop and see her. Auntie Emma would always give me a kiss on the cheek and tell me I tasted like Vanilla or Strawberries or something sweet. I do that with my own daughter now. Emma was such a warm caring woman. I have such fond memories of her, as I am sure you all do. My deepest sympathy!

I was saddened to hear of "Auntie" Emma's passing. She has been a huge part of my life, treating me almost like another daughter. My parents, Pat and Larry Mikesh, and I became close to her and Nathan after traveling to St. Maarten together years ago. All my children were touched by her love and acceptance. Blessings to all, I am sure you are going to miss her, as I will.
