I am so sorry to hear of Evelyn's passing. She was a client of mine for a number of years. She and I shared many meaningful conversations while she worked out. She was like a second mother figure to me and I will miss her dearly. She was a lovely woman. My condolences to Joe and the family.

Joe my dearest friend, I am so saddened by this news and lost for words to express my sorrow. I had no idea till about a week ago when I last seen you and you told me that she was not doing well and suffering with cancer. Not sure how painful the illness was for her but know that she is in a good hand and pain free. My sincere condolences to you and all the family and let me know if I can help in any way. Sincerely, Hassan
