My sincerest condolences for the death of Peggy. I knew Peggy and Andy for many years and feel like I have lost family.

Dear Zaras Family,

I went to school with Phil at Holy Mount many years ago. Your mom was a very sweet lady and always remembered me when I'd see her at church when I would visit my mom. Please accept my deepest sympathy on her passing. You are in my prayers.

Love,
Kathy (Pouba) Swartz
