Dr. Cutler,

Though we never met your wife we knew her to be not only a great baker but a giving and caring woman. The way you spoke of her, we also knew that she was a loving partner.

We are sorry for your loss.

Dr. Cutler

As a former student of yours at Chicago State, and as participants in your most interesting tours from Carillon, our deepsest condolences on your loss. The cookies your wife baked for us were greatly appreciated.

Dr. Cutler, I knew immediately when I saw mention of the cookie lady in today's paper that she was your wife. I had the pleasure of sampling her treats on one of your city tours, and I so appreciated that warm and human touch. You have my sympathy for your loss.

Dear Irv:

I was deeply saddened upon hearing your wife passed away.Altho my relationship with Marian was on the phone, several times, I could tell she was a kind person and her cookies certainly reflected this as well. She will be sorely missed.
