Vangie was a true friend. I even named my only son after Deniz. I use to live in Stoneham, MA. I really miss Vangie and I pray for Deniz and Lexie.

Deniz,
I don't know if you remember us, but I knew the Mavris Family for many years. Anne and I had booked many trips with Vangie early on in our marriage. I can't tell you how shocked I was to hear of Vangies passing just recently. She was a wonderful person and you were a great husband to her. Our condolences to you and your daughter.
