Dr. Sweeney and Family,

Barbara and I want to express our deepest sympathies to you and all of the Sweeney Family. I knew Kathy due to the friendship she shared with my late mother Gene Keilman. I had the good fortune to meet Kathy and many of her family over the years when visiting along with my mother. She always made me feel welcome and conveyed a warmth that quickly puts one at ease. I am grateful to have met her and deeply appreciate the friendship she shared over the years...

Dear Sweeney Family,
My deepest sympathy.
May the love you shared hold you gently and give you comfort in the days ahead.
Mrs. Sweeney was filled with grace, love and joy. I am blessed to have known her.
With Aloha,
Carmen
