My heart goes out to your families at the loss of your Mom and Mimi. She always had a smile on her face at knitting. Thank you for sharing her with all of us knitters.

We have so many wonderful memories of your Mom. It was always great to run into her around the neighborhood and stop and talk and laugh. She was very proud of her children and grandchildren and talked about you all the time. She will be truly missed.

Dear family and friends of Suzie,
Although I haven't seen Sue for many years, I hold dear the many fond memories of time spent with her at Brookfield Central High School. Her smile would light up a room; her zaniness would get a party started!
I am so very sorry for your loss, especially so soon after the passing of Bob. May the love of friends, family and your faith sustain you at this time.
Sincerely,
Jane Gardner Borroughs (Class of 1966)
