Dear Shea and Kelley,

I became acquainted with your mother in the early 70's as neighbors at the Devonshire Park Apartments. Shea, I believe you were born after your parents moved to Focht Avenue in the Greenawalds neighborhood. I remember your mother as a warm, gracious lady with whom I shared many many conversations. You both were such bright lights in her life.

Although I do not know why she was called home so soon, I do know that your mother is surely one of God's special angels. Please accept my heartfelt condolences in her loss.

With sympathy,
Janice (Berger) Davis
