Dear Ellen and Jason,



We were very sorry to hear that Tom is no longer with you. It will not be easy to deal with the loss. Only time will be your healer. Let us know if there will be a service.

Dear Ellen,

You were always one of my mother's favorite cousins and mine too. When we lost my mom you were so kind and compassionate...I will always remember your kindness during that time.



I just heard about Tom last night. I am so sorry I was unable to go to the service...I would have been there had I known. Just know that you and Jason are in our prayers and I pray that your transition will be filled with peace. Remember that God loves you so much and will comfort you in your time of grief...Peace to you Ellen.



Love Shelly, Dawn, Kevin and Jessica Gottlieb
