To Dean and family: My heart goes out to you on the recent passing of your mother...what a dear lady she was. My grandma, Hazel Van Kley, was one of her close friends...you may have met her years ago. They not only decorated eggs together but also shared many hours together just enjoying their friendship. When they each could no longer drive, I so enjoyed helping to get them together for a few hours.

Dean - my condolences to you and family. Your Mother was always so kind to me as child and as her next door neighbor in Gary. She helped me to discover the world with different eyes, with a different perspective, and to this day, I know her tenderness has allowed me to chase my dreams.

Earnestly,
