Not sure what to say?

We are shocked and saddened to learn of the passing of Mrs. Kay Forde, a charming and gracious lady and the wife of the renowned Gastroenterologist Dr. Kenneth A. Forde. We had the pleasure of speaking with her at the KAFDA Reception honoring her husband at Columbia U Physicians and Surgeons on Movember 30, 2017. She spoke to us about their recent trip to Buckingham Palace in London, where Dr. Ken Forde was knighted by Queen Elizabeth in October.

We send our deepest condolences...

Dear Mr. Ford,
We just learned from our daughter Vanessa that your lovely wife passed away.
Please receive our sympathy and heartfelt condolences.
It was an honor for Claudette and me to have met you and Kay as very close friends of our American family.
We wish you strength .
Claudette and Michel Eertmans

With sadness, and gratitude for having known and loved Kay
for so many good years.
