Dear Howard and Family,

I was so sad to hear of Adrian's passing. We worked together for twenty plus years and were very fond of one another. I met each of her family members at least one time during the years, but I know you well through the stories we shared with each other. We had fun with our City of Evanston friends and will I cherish these memories.

I'm sorry I couldn't be at the services, but I was out of town and returned Friday night to this very sad news.

I still can't believe she's gone.
I will keep your family in my prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss, I will keep your family in my prayers. I am so sorry I was not there, I just found out a few minutes ago. Adrian was such a great friend to me. I had the privilege of working with her for 20 years, and the privilege of having her as a friend, she was like a Mom to me. She was always there for me with a hug, a smile, advice, you name it. She was such a wonderful part of my life. She always cared about me and I loved her so much. I can't beleive she's gone. She will be missed.
