"Dear Alan, Steve, Tony, Diane, Gay and family,
I so understand and can feel the heartfelt loss of your mom, grandmother, great grandmother. May you hold fast to memories shared with love and gratitude ... knowing she will hold you again. Though the void may seem vast, your family will hold her in the present and help all to grieve and process her absence. May your sorrow soon be replaced by a memory of smile ... May God keep you close. Sending my love, Cheri"

"Diane,
I have so many beautiful memories of your mom, especially growing up, as you and I would spend time in the kitchen experimenting with recipes or we would share meals at your table (especially when your dad would bring fresh walleye home from Omaha). I also think about how many times your mom had to listen to "Build Me Up Buttercup" streaming from your 'record room' as we would listen to music and dance for hours. So glad to have known her and to be able to hold these and other memories of your mom in my heart. Hope to see you soon, and give my best to all your family. So wish I could be there to see you and them. Love, Mary"
