My husband and I are so sad to just learn of your Mom and Dad´s passings. We thought the world of them both.

We hope you are all managing. Please forgive this late message. Debbie and Okie OConnor

Remembering with love, our family vacation in Cape Cod, Esther and Joe and all the Sullivan's joined with Ocampo's in a wonderful visit. We miss them.

I lived next door to Esther & Joe for many years. I saw her as a good friend and sought her out in recent years to help me with a knitting question. I was not aware that Joe passed away in March. My deep condolences go out to Susan, Richard and Paul on the loss of your parents so close together. May God comfort and keep you as your go forward grieving this tragedy. May the many memories of your times together as a family help in this process.

So sorry for your loss you will be miss.

Dear Susan, so very, very sorry to learn of your mom's passing, particularly so soon after you lost your dad. I had no idea you were going through this and feel for you and your family. Be strong and I hope you have many wonderful memories to cherish as you look back and honor your mother's life. Hugs, Linda Brantley

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Susan, Richard and Paul and families: Sending deepest condolences from our family to yours. I knew your Mom over many years and whenever I had the pleasure of being with her recognized what a beautiful and loving and kind person she was to everyone she encountered in her life. She now dwells among the saints. Love and prayers to you all from all the Svendsens.

Susan and family
So sorry about your lovely moms passing. She was a nice woman, very warm and genuine and I enjoyed talking to her when ever we got together at the McManus gatherings. I know you will miss her. Praying for you
