Please accept my condolences.
Upon learning of the passing of your Mother I reflected upon her pleasant nature and calming smile in dealing with us as teenagers, in a home that was always so busy.
My thoughts are with you all this week.

Mrs. Hartnett was one of the lovliest women I have ever met. I was always struck by her appreciation for each of her children's unique strengths.
She loved her family deeply and will surely be missed by all of you. My deepest sympathy to all her loved ones.
