Dear Harold and Carol,
We were so sorry to hear of Marilyn’s passing. Our hearts go out to you at the loss of your devoted mother.
We have so many wonderful memories of both of your parents…. the vacations we took together at the Fairmont in Lakewood, as well as, the many holidays and social events in our family’s homes.
We wish we had the words to take away your pain. We know that those we love remain with us because
love itself is eternal. Marilyn and Irv live on in our memories and in our hearts.
We pray for strength and comfort for you and your family.
May the love and light of God shine on you every day.
Love and blessings to you always.
