Pam, Penny, Pat and families – I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom meant so much to me. She spent several hours with me last year in the hospital when my Mom was dying. She was always one of my Maple Court Angels and now really is watching over us all. You have my deepest sympathy.Hugs and Prayers – Julie Frisco, TX US
Our thoughts are with you. Akron, OH US
Pam, Penny, and Pat, Your Mom was clearly a special person to our family, and she exuded gracefulness as she aged. My mother truly enjoyed visting with her. They an interest in bridge, in church, in computers, in their grandkids and families–and really in people. Last year when my mother died, Mary Ellen was one of the 1st to come over and she repeatedly prepared food–and I remember her and Penny at Mother's funeral. Most though, I will remember her kindness and incessant smile. I am sorry for your loss, but you must also be very proud of how she lived and the example she set for all uf us.
