My condolences to the family. Your Mom was such a nice lady. She gave so much time in service of others. We had a lot of great conversations over the years. (Marcia, sorry I couldn't make the visitation today, I was hoping to see you it's been along time.)

Paul and Marcia,
Our deepest and heartfelt condolences to you and your entire family on the passing of one of the sweetest and kindest lady we have ever known. We are so fortunate to have known her and had her as a neighbor. We recall fondly the time she called us when our son headed off down the street on his big wheel with the family dog. She was always so warm and friendly and you always had a place to sit in her kitchen. We know now she too will be welcomed in heaven and have a warm and comfortable place to rest.
