My Beautification Friend Jane,

I always looked for her at an event, because I knew where she was, the real party wasn't too far behind, especially when she and Joe had Rob Roy as an escort!
Diane Moje and I enjoyed a GLORIOUS brunch together with Jane at Giorgio's, just before Di and I headed off to Italy in 2001. Jane tipped us in on alot, and boy did we take notes. She asked us to find Carol, her friend of 25 years, she hadn't seen her in 15 and lost contact five prior. We were ESTATIC at the quest! And we found her!! Calling to a balcony after ringing a doorbell on the bottom floor, all we had to say was "Jane, Lake Panamoka", and we were automatically family!! She is loved.

So sorry to hear of your loss and that we won't be able to personally convey our deepest sympathy to all of you. Steve is out of town this week. You are in our thoughts and prayers. We will hold close our memories of Mrs. Gibbons and hope to see you all some time in the future.
With love,
Steve, Jeanne, Kelly, and Conner Ruggles

Mr. Gibbons,

Ed and I want to express our deepest sympathy on the passing of your wife. We are sorry that we cannot be with you. Some of my fondest memories of my childhood growing up on Sanders Place will always include the time our families spent together. I think of Sue and our friendship often and miss her so deeply. I remember the fun times, guidance and love your wife provided that kept us from not getting into too much mischief. You and your family will be in my prayers. God bless all of you at this time. Love, Kathy Ruggles & Ed McGuire

Uncle Joe,Michaele,Jacqie,Jeff,Peter, and grandchildren. Our family memories are of great one's even though the past 3 years have been tough. We do have some wonderful mermories from Jones Beach, Easter egg hunts and all the other holidyas we have shared. Lake Panamoka with Karissia and my girls being very young going out on the lake when it was frozen and watching them row off out of sight. My girls will always remember and look forward to spending more nights out at the lake with Laurine. Love you guys. Jennifer, Samantha and Casey.

I have such fond childhood memories of the Gibbons family living around the block. So sorry to hear about Mrs. Gibbons' passing. I remember fun sleepovers on Sanders Place, and how she would let us swim at night in your cool backyard pool that was deeper in the middle! Great memories of a time gone by-she was a wonderful person, and I remember her fondly. Love to all. Kerrie McLeod(Small) and all the Small family
