Dear Georgy, Debbie, and Jo,
My thoughts of your mom go back to the very first time I was in Rockford in 1968, and she welcomed me into your home. What wonderful memories I have of the times with her and Joe (and all of you) at their home on Huffman Blvd. after I moved to Rockford--she always made me feel a part of the family.
We know these last few years have been difficult for her, but remembering the many wonderful memories of times shared with her will hopefully help heal the loss over time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Deb & family,
It's been many years since I've seen your mom, but I remember her as a warm and loving person. It's always difficult to lose someone close to you, but I hope you will find comfort in the many memories that I'm sure you must have.
Keeping you all in my thoughts and in my prayers.
