Dear Theurer Family,

It was sad to hear of the loss of your mother and wife. I have wonderful memories of her gracious smile (except the one time I was stealing brownies at your house!) and when you all came in to Axel's to celebrate family get togethers. She was a wonderful person and will be sadly missed.

My love and sympathy to you all,

Jeanne (Brown) Lombardi

To all the Theurer family, and especially to Uncle Paul,
I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Mary passing away and sad for your loss. I know how important she was to you all. I will miss her very much, even though I have only gotten to see her a few times lately. I have so many memories of our families getting together and celebrating holidays together. She was my godmother, too. My prayers and hopes for peace and joy are with all of you. I will be thinking of you all. Love, Sue Mabry and family
