Not sure what to say?

Judy and Jeffrey,

I was so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I remember Mrs. Schwedes very well from my childhood on Myron Street in Niskayuna NY. My brothers Jeff, Brad and Chris and I spent many hours at Mrs. Schwedes house with her dog Charlie, working on crafts and eating cookies and milk. She always welcomed the Roberts' kids into her home, and we loved her kindness and generosity. I kept in touch over the years through Christmas cards, but several years ago lost...

While we were not personally acquainted with Ms. Schwedes, we all have become professionally respectful and personally fond of her son Jeffrey. We're certain much of the man, dedicated co-worker and friend we know was passed down from Laura. Our sincerest sympathy to all of the Schwedes family and close friends.

Laura was a wonderful person. I really enjoyed working with her when she came down for her strengthening sessions at the Wellness Center. She will be missed.

To Laura's family and friends, I send my
heartfelt sympathy on the loss of a dear,
lovable person. Her wit and wisdom, kind
ness and generosity, and her delightful
laugh will always be with us when our
thoughts turn to Laura.

With love, Sue Sheldon
