Mary Ann,
I'm so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. (I happened to google your name, after speaking with Roger Hunt, and coincidentally found out about this today.) I wish you and all of your family the very best during this difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers are with you!

Dear Judy, Karen and Mary Ann, I'm truly sorry for the passing of your wonderful mother. She will always be very special to me because it was she who I chose for a role model years ago as we grew up having family gatherings at "Uncle Nick's" on River St.

Dear Judy, Karen and Mary Ann,
My sympathy on the passing of your mother! I have only fond memories of the Souchik family on River St--from your Dad our TV repairman to your Mom putting up with me reading all of your comic books on the back porch to the summer days gone by in the back yard. Hope you are all well. My thoughts and prayers with you during this time.
My best,
