Mary, Kathy, John and families,
I was so sorry to hear about your Mom. I would have come to the funeral if I had heard in time. She was a very special lady. I'll never forget the great times our families had together, especially the camping trip to Lake George! Your parents were so much fun. I never saw your mom without a smile on her face. Remember all the good times you had together and how lucky you were to have them.

Mary(and Kathy & John) - I am sorry to read of your mother's passing. I remember so well what a wonderful lady she was, always so kind and generous with everyone! One thing I clearly remember is a conversation she and I had about how she would iron all your jeans and how much you all disliked it. The subject came up that day because I had on a pair of jeans with creases in them and she was pointing out to Mary that my mother did the same thing. I am so glad that I had the opportunity to know your mom! Heaven has a new angel!

I had the privilege of doing Connie's hair for quite some time. She was the nicest, sweetest lady. Always interesting to talk to. May she rest in peace.
