I am so sorry to hear of your Mom’s passing. I met your parents when your Mom was touring Merrick after your Dad’s stroke. They found a way into my heart as I treated him and then after. I had lost contact with her but she and your family were such lovely people. Hoping memories bring you comfort.
I’m sorry for your loss. Carol was a warm, kind and talented student in my seniors art classes for many years, as well as a friend. I’m grateful that she had Susan’s companionship this past, difficult year, and was surrounded by her loving family at the end.
SUSIE, MICHAEL & PETER – OH, THE LOSS OF CAROL IS DIFFICULT. A BEST FRIEND, NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN – OUR MEMORIES OF ALL THE WONDERFUL TIMES WITH CAROL & JERRY WILL BE CHERISHED IN OUR HEARTS. THEIR LOVE FOR YOU KIDS WAS EXTRAORDINARY – ALWAYS EXPRESSED WITH LOVE & HUMOR. DEEDEE & LEONARD
