To the Sulo family,
I have nothing but great memories with Gram! I will never forget sitting with her and her having me play the video tape of Derek and Dom putting bowls on their heads and knocking over the height-chair! I always enjoyed listening to the stories she would tell about her life and the AMAZING family that she has. Your whole family is in mine and my families prayers and I love you all!
Love, Samantha

Dear Sulo Family, Your mom, Mickey, and my mom, Sally, we're friends from the 1940's. They met as young women, at work, and remained friends for 70+ years. Over the past several years, I enjoyed hearing their favorite stories of friendship at our luncheons with them and your family friend Helene. Their get togethers always brought smiles and a few good laughs, regardless of whatever difficulties they were otherwise facing. True Friends are Priceless. Our Sympathy to your family, and Peace to our friend, Mickey.
