My deepest sympathy at the loss of your mother. I didn’t have the pleasure of knowing your mom but I have heard wonderful comments about her. Raising six children is a tribute of love reserved for a few special people, including your mother.

Don and Amy. So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family.

Dear Family, Jane, Rob , Judy, Joyce, Debby, Donny.
Last week we heard about your mother. When I visited my mother , she told me that Tante Ge has called her.
My memory’s off her is that she/you visited Holland, and that I was your guest in 1981.
Your mother was nice /lief, zorgzaam en kind.
I also saw the note of Cheril, I remember me that summer from the pictures.
You know, my englisch is not so good, but you know that I mean all of my writhings.You will miss her, and we think about her in love.
Your cousin from Holland Marga
