Dick and I just learned of the passing of your mother from our neighbor in R.I. George Gordon, who used to work at the market manyh years ago. We had great fun with them at parties with your aunts and uncles, and of course all the years that Dick knew your father long before he married your mother. Our deepest sympathy.

Jamie, Jodi, Michael, Nicky, and Sal, how blessed you were to have such a caring, loving, Mother. Absolutely devoted to her family; they were everything to her. Over the fify or so years that I knew her, I found her to be a most sympathetic, sincere, and kind, friend. She had the patience of "Job" and will surely be missed by the many who knew her.
Love to you all
Auntie Nancy
