To the family of Trudy Hurley I send my deepest sympathy. I was introduced to John and Trudy through my husband, Frank who was a patient with them at Biggs Memorial Hospital in the late l940's. They were all friends and kept in touch through the years. Frank died January 6, 2011. I am sorry for your loss, the Hurley's were a delightful couple. Most sincerely, Shirley Condella

Richard, Karen, and Family,
Our most sincere sympathy in the loss of your mother, Trudy. We always enjoyed spending time with her at my mother's home in Seneca Falls. She truly was a lovely lady. Our prayers are with you.
