Dear Karen, Erica, and Michael:

We have always considered you "family". Your Grandparents and our parents were best friends, so it only made sense, that your Mom was our "cousin", and you our nieces and nephew. On behalf of the entire Gilpin clan, I can only tell you we will dearly miss her witty humor and her smiling face. Her loving spirit will be with all of us.

Love to all,

Janet

Karen, Erica and Michael, my deepest sympathies to you all, plus the grandchildren. I'm sure they feel the loss as much, if not more, than we do. She will always be remembered for her quick wit, and ready smile. She and I shared a lifetime of memories and fun times. I will always have her in my heart.

Love,

Carole Jean
