Dear Family of Marie Wilson,
I grew up with Tom and Grace in Downers Grove. I had not seen Marie, or Mrs. Wilson as we called her then, for many years. About 5 years ago she came to the Hinsdale Humane Society where I worked as receptionist. She came with Grace and her son-in-law. I recognized Marie after all those years. She was interested in getting a pet. It was so nice to see her and Grace. Marie looked wonderful then. She was such a nice lady. My thoughts of sympathy are with you her loving family.
