Condolences from the Hyde family in Wenzhou, China. It is rather poignant that we write this near Memorial Day. For it was always during that weekend my family, when I was growing up, went to Roslyn to visit relatives, and to see Dorothy was always a special part. I had always wanted my wife XiaoHong and daughter Olivia to meet Dorothy and her wit and humor, I am sure they would have enjoyed it very much and am sorry for missing the chance. We are also sorry for the loss to all.

Mom, You were caring, loving and always supportive of your children and grand children's dreams. My success at Boeing was due to you and Dad believing in me. Thank you for all of your love and support, I never could have received my PhD without you!
