On the anniversary of joanie’s passing—I often think of my funny sweet loving cousin. I’m so sorry she missed so much. She would be so proud of her loving daughters and all of her grandchildren. She’s up there telling jokes and even God is laughing.

Penni and Sandy - it's been many, many years. We were neighbors on Philips in Chicago and I remember you and your parents so well. I was very sorry to hear about your mother. When things settle down for you, I would like to meet up with you both.
Fondly - Sheri Rahn (Ginsberg)

Dear Penny and Sandy--I'll always remember your mom as a young, gorgeous, funny, vibrant woman who made me laugh--I loved visiting your house when you guys were small and your shoes were on you dresser all polished and shiny and the two salads with the red cabbage were on the kitchen table waiting for your dad to get home and she was out in the street calling for the "woman to come in"----I loved her dearly and I loved the 2 of you as young girls---I am sorry for your loss but I know you will remember her in the same ways that I do and those memories will always bring a smile to your face and slowly fill the hole in your heart that her loss leaves behind---much love, Deedles
