Joe,

I am so sorry for you and your family - your mom was quite something and one of my favorite patients ever. My heart is sad that I didn't get to care for her one last time. Prayers for all of you.

I was so saddened to hear about the passing of a good friend. Roberta and I were good friends when we both lived in Yonkers

It is sad to read of Roberta's passing. We worked together many years in the Postal Service. She was quite a lady.
