Dear Bill & Family,

I cannot believe that I somehow missed this guestbook in the notice I received at the time of Adrianne's passing.

I knew Adrianne since grade school, growing up with her through our High School graduation. Even as a youngster Adrianne exhibited a dignity and maturity that shone through. In meeting her again some forty years later, she radiated those same qualities of warmth and caring I remembered from our childhood.

My sincerest sympathy. I hope that since the time of Adrianne's passing, that your grief, at least for the most part, has given way to the happiness you shared together, which will always remain with you.

Dear Bill and Adrianne's family,

At our class reunion in 2003, Adrianne told me how much that weekend had meant to her, for the opportunity to gather with her classmates and friends and share memories of our school days. The fact is that the reunion would not have been successful without her co-leadership and contributions to its planning; for her it was truly a labor of love. At this time of great sadness, I hope you will find comfort in knowing how much Adrianne touched our lives with her generosity, kindness, and bright spirit.
