Dear Jean,
I am sorry to read of your mother's death,I remember visiting the Kunkel's on South Kennilworth Street and your parents visits to Milwaukee as well. I am hopeful that you will read this note and contact your old friend from Cobeen hall. I miss you often and pray that you are well and happy.

Dear Gene, Jeanie and Kunkel clan, I'm so very sorry to hear about Sue's sudden passing. I have so many fond memories of her - with many Kunkel babysitting assignments being right up there! She was an incredibly kind and compassionate woman who brought a special warmth to the 500 black of South Kenilworth. You are all in my thoughts.
Best wishes,

Kunkels,
Please accept my deepest sympathy. Sue was a good friend at Trinity. I well remember her laugh and wry sense of humor, still evident at our 50th reunion.
She was well loved and will be sorely missed.
