So sorry to learn of your mother's recent passing. Although I haven't seen her since our 50th high school reunion, I have fond memories of the Stone family, and later, her marriage and the birth of her daughter, Barbara Jean. Her daughter and my Sarah were very close in age and despite our physical distance (NJ), we managed to exchange parenting tips for our "girls" in their early years. We only saw each other at class reunions where we talked and talked and talked. We also exchanged occasional letters. Jean was a smart, hardworking, compassionate woman with not one but two successful careers. She was a great support to me when my brother died. I was blessed to have her as a friend and classmate.
My sympathy to her daughter, grandson and remaining family. Jean will be missed not only by her family but her many friends as well.

We were friends since high school and spent many happy times together in one another's homes for many years. She had a kind and sweet spirited personality that just drew you to her. Although we did not see each other much over the past few years because of the distance between us, we did speak on the phone from time to time.
Please accept my sincere sympathy to the entire family for the loss of your loved one. She will be sorely missed by many.

Barbara was a friend since high school. She endeared herself to all who knew her by her sweet disposition. There was never a nicer woman.
My sympathy to her family and many friends she left behind. She will be most remembered for her kindness.
May she rest in eternal peace.
