Not sure what to say?

Dear Maureen and Margaret,
I was so saddened to hear of your Mother's death.
She was my room mate in nurse's training and our adventure in New York after graduation.
We shared so many good times together in our youth. We laughed together,we cried together;loved her laugh. I missed her friendship over the years,but have so many fond memories to cherish.
My husband and I send our condolences to you and you families.May dear Mary rest in peace.
Love,
Carl and Mary Ann Naessig.

Margaret and Maureen,

My life changed when I met Mary and her two beautiful girls through Girl Scouts, Mountaintop Pa at St Paul's church. we became friends immediately... May God comfort her family. Becky Mullen

Dear Family,
I was so saddened to learn of Mary's passing. I had the pleasure to work with her for a short time at Geisinger South Wilkes-Barre just before it's closing. She was a lovely woman and a dynamo at work. She will probably organize a step dancing group in heaven.

Dear Margaret and Maureen,
I first met your Mom when we worked at the Va Medical Center and later in PCU at Mercy Hospital in Wilkes Barre but also knew her through activities with you both here in Mountaintop.
We kept in touch long after she left this area and went to live in Philadelphia to be nearer her grandchildren.
I was so very saddened to hear of her passing.
She was by far one of the kindest , most compassionate nurses that I have ever worked with and I learned so...

My deepest sympathy to the family.
