Dear Mary:

So sorry to hear about Jim's passing. While we were not close neighbors, we did enjoy the friendly wave you & Jim always gave when we saw you the both of you walking or passing in your car. Our prayers are with both of you and please take some comfort that Jim is at peace. You neighbors in Burbank. God Bless.

Dear Mary -



Don't know if you will remember me or not but I worked with both you and Jim, Jo Marzullo, Bernie Banach and Jho Burich at IBM(SBC)downtown -too many years ago to know the exact date.



I was thinking about both of you and wondered where the time had taken you. I am so sorry to find you via the death notices. Both of you were two of the nicest people I worked with. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
