Dear Susan and family of Jeanette , I am so very sorry for your loss. I didn't know your mom. In fact Susan you will be hard pressed to remember me. Which I don't even expect. I just happen to read of your loss and wanted to pass along my condolences.
We were in grade school together many moon ago in Morristown. At Alexander Hamilton. At the time my name was Linda Wright. However like I said it was a long time ago and I just wanted to express my sympathy.
Warm Regards,
Linda

I am sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom. She was a pillar of the community, a dignified woman, and a wonderful friend to my lovely cousin Pauline Zudick. I've known your mother all my life, and will think of her fondly.
