Dear Lynn and family, I was sad to hear of your loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Actually you are in my thoughts often when I tell stories of growing up in Deep River. I hope that you remember me, my maiden name was Kathy Hodge, Alan always said my name as Coffee Hodge. I have such fond memories of spending time with you and your mom always made me feel like one of the family. Again, my thoughts are with you.

To Lynn and your family. I hope that you remember me, my maiden name was Kathy Hodge. I remember Alan used to call me Coffee Hodge. I have so many fond memories of time spent with your family. Your mother always made me feel like one of the kids. I am visiting my sister in Connecticut and she told me of your loss. I am so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dear Brainard Family,
I am sincerely sorry for your loss. Joan always had such a cheerful demeanor, and a smile for everyone. Just before we both retired from Essex Elemenary on the same year, I was able to find out her secret to macaroni and tuna salad. As it was, I had planned to make it for Lenten Friday dinner, and had warm thoughts of her. Ironic that I had heard of her passing a few days later. IT is comforting to know that we touch many people in many ways.
