Dear Kathy, John & Family:

My sincere sympathy on the passing of your dear Mother. During my days at First Federal, I spoke to her often. She was a kind and lovely person.

She definitely will be missed by family and friends.

I know that this is a traumatic time, but I am confident that the fond memories you have of your Mother will get you through this difficult period.

Dear John, Kathy and Family,

We send our love to you on your Mom's passing. We know how your're feeling at this time. It's a hard realization; we have never had to live without them.

Julie and I were reminiscing and the story that popped to mind was the telephone call to Glenlake announcing the future arrival of you, John. We can remember clearly the whooping and hollering, not to mention the excitement of your folks at the other end of the line!We were going to have a new baby cousin! And, oh how you made your
mom and dad's life complete.

We wish we could be with you John, Kathy , Chris, Lori and Craig.

This saying that means so much to us and hope it comforts you also goes like this: "Where a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of
beautiful memories." This certainly holds true for our Calista.

God bless and love to you all.

Julie, Pam and Ron

To the Enlund Family:
My sincere condolences in the loss of your beloved Calista. She was a beautiful lady, admired and respected. As a retiree of First Federal/Citibank, after 45 years of service, I continue to cherish the memory of the Enlund Family -- and was blessed to know them. Again, my heartfelt sympathy - Calista (as well as Mr. Enlund) will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
