So sorry to have just learned of Candy's passing. I went to high school with her and have nothing but the fondest of memories of her cheerful spirit. I've been away from Hinsdale for many years and was searching for a lead on a 1968 Hinsdale South class reunion. My sincerest condolences to her family.

Candy was in my Kappa Alpha Theta pledge class at Syracuse. I recall her great smile and the intensity, passion, and caring that it represented.

Candy -- I know you're up in heaven watching over Bruce and the girls. No one could have asked for a more loving and caring mom, wife, sister and friend.



I cherish the memories of our good times at Syracuse and here in Chicago with your family. I'm glad we met and stayed friends all these years.



I'll see you around the quad.

I first met Candy when we were 3 years old, on the Sunday School bus. For the next 11 years, we were inseparable. The foundations of our shared childhood have been an inspiration my entire life. We are all so lucky to have known and loved her.

Candy was a delightful person - so animated and full of life. I always looked forward to seeing her at the Westchester 4th of July parade and catching up on comings and goings. I know how much she enhoyed gardening and Candy always provided me with some good planting tips. God's blessings on Bruce and the girls. My family and I will keep you in our prayers.
