Donna- I´m so so sorry to hear of your mom´s passing! I am sure it´s devastating! She seemed to be a constant love and support to you and my thoughts and wishes for a time when you are less in mourning and able to celebrate all she was to you and your entire family. Sending love and my best- Debby Sabin

We are both so sad to hear about our dear Claire. How I shall miss our long telephone conversations with the usual mutual ending of "Love you ". We had so much in common having self employed husbands etc who needed our input as well gave us an understanding of the problems of being self employed. A treasured and loved friend. Gerry and Al Muccini.
