Dear Valerie & Jimmy

You might remember me. I lived next

door to Carm & Emily. Bette & Frank

were my parents. Carm and Arthur

were my Godparents. I saw your Mother 2 years ago when my mother

passed away.

I am so sorry to hear of your

Mother's death. She was very sweet

and beautiful lady. My sympathy to

all of you at this time.

Jimmy I remember your great painting.

Take care.

Sincerely,

Judy & Jim Jones

To Mary's Dear Family - I have so many fond memories of Mary and our families. So many years of laughter and sometimes tears. We saw each other less as we grew older...but the memories of this wonderful lady will be constant, strong, and warm...as long as I live. I wish I could have hugged you Mary, before you passed on.

Due to chronic health problems we might not make it to see you this last time....that will always make me feel sad..however, my vision of you being vibrant and enjoying life is so real today in my mind and heart that I can touch it. I'll have that till we meet again sweet friend. Sincerely, Peggy Iovino.

Dear family of Mary Collazo: I didn't know Mary. I knew Jimmy. I worked at the Sanitary District for many years and he spoke such good things about his wife. I am so very sorry about your loss. It is as though, knowing Jimmy, I've lost part of my own family. God Bless you all in you time of sorrow and always. Diane M. Casey
