Dear Nancy, Bill and family, We're so very sorry about your Mom. Ed called her last spring when he was in Boston but could not see her then. I will miss just knowing she is around although we did not get together often. Ed joins me in much sympathy to you all. Barbara Tilden Lindeman

Billy and Nancy,

It's always sad to hear this news and my thoughts are with you both at this time.

Hadn't seen your Mom since we saw both your parents in CT when my grandmother died. I remember all the stories they had to tell and my memories as well at Chestnut Hill.

My family sends their sympathy to all your family.

Sincerely,

Lucy Lindeman Carty

My parents received your message after their visit on the Cape, and I looked up the Globe this morning. So sorry to hear about your mother, it must be a very difficult time for you both.



My last visit with your parents was in West Hartford when Mimi passed away, it was a sad day.......but a nice visit.(lots of fun stories of the old days)



I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you... sorry to be in touch after all these years under such sad circumstances.



Sincerely yours,

Charles and Amy Gouger
