Sandra, Sharon, Donna & Families,
I worked with your mother at the SCF in the early 90s, and we became good friends. She talked about her beloved daughters and grandsons so much, I felt like I knew you all. She was a beautiful, elegant woman with a radiant smile. I am terribly sorry for your loss.

Aunt Fran,
You have one of the most incredible smiles. The best part is that your smile has been past down to your daughters so you will live on. You will be missed but never forgotten. I'm so glad my mom was there holding your hand as you walked through the gates of heaven. I love you
Your neice Susan
