John, Jim and family,

So sorry to hear of the passing of your mom. We all have memories of our neighborhood families that we carry forever. She was such a nice person to me, always. May she rest in eternal paradise.

Faithfully once a month Lillian would visit my hair salon for a color and a trim. I enjoyed our visits. We would solve world problems and maybe create a few. She was a lovely person and will be missed. My sympathies to the Cole family. Tom Talarico
