To Ann, James and Paul,
So sorry about the passing of your mom. Time passes so quickly, it's been quite a while since I saw your mom but I remember how sweet and kind she was. I know she is celebrating in heaven with Our Lord, our Blessed Mother Mary and all the Angels and Saints. She's in the place we all strive to go. Take comfort in knowing she is happy. Remember all the good times and that will comfort you. I hope that knowing so many people as well as myself are praying for her will console all of you.
My deepest sympathy, Jill Ruiz Bauer

I will always remember the many luncheons shared with Eloise. She was always so sweet and always found the positive in everything. Eloise will be greatly missed by all whom knew her for while she was a quiet person, she had a soul so genuine and pure. Please accept my deepest condolences.
