Dear Levin Family:
Mrs. Levin was such a wonderful person and we are fortunate to have known her. She was a "second Mom" during Mary Lee's years at Kellogg-always there with a home cooked meal, advice and support. She touched all of us who were fortunate enough to know her. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you and we hope to see you soon.

Mr Levin, Rob Elaine I can't express the sorrow I feel for all of you. Mrs Levin was such a great person and so kind to me all the years I was in Junior High and High School. Rob and Elaine it is apparent that your parents did a great job raising you and molding you into the great people you are. Your mother will be missed by all god bless to all of you and may your mother reat in peace. She was awsome!

Dear Elaine & Rob & Cal (Mr. Levin):
This is the thrid time I've started writing this over. I heard of the sad news from my mom. It must have been extremely difficult to see your mom suffering. She was a fighter and fougt a hard fight. I will always remember your mom as the person who taught me how to say my "I"'s instead of "Me"''s I'd always say "Elaine & Me are going to go play" and she would always say "It's Elaine & I" not "Elaine and me". I also remember what a wonderful cook she was and tennis player. Also, how she was very encouraging to those around her.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
Love,
Susan (Goynshor) Weinstein
