Hi Hildy,
Sorry to hear about your mom's death. What an impressive life she had! A woman graduating from medical school in 1951 is no small accomplishment. From reading the other entries it sounds like she had a very positive impact in many lives.

Dear Julie,
Please accept my condolences on your mother's death, and my apologies for this somewhat impersonal format. I am very glad I had the opportunity to meet her on one of your visits to Brookline. She really seemed to handle her illness with a remarkable spirit. It sounds like she had as good a death as possible, but I'm sure her absence will not be easy. If you're coming up this way, let me know if you'd like to get together.
With love,
Marcia

Dear Julie and Family,
I am saddened to hear of your mother's passing. I feel lucky that I was able to get to know her a little bit on her visits to Pittburgh when you lived here. She was an amazing woman who passed on so much care, concern, and knowledge to you and your family. I hope with time, and the love and caring of friends and family your pain will lessen.
My thoughts are with you all.
Love,
