My heart is saddened at the passing of my dear friend, but I am rejoicing in my spirit knowing that she is with God and is suffering no more. To the girls... earth holds no sorrows that heaven can not heal. Your mom was an excellent nurse and a distinguished colleague and also a true friend whom I'll miss dearly.

Love Gloria

My sincere condolences in this time of sorrow for the loss of Vicki goes to her entire family. I lived on the same block (in Bush) and attended school (Sullivan) with Christine. I also had the pleasure of getting to know Vicki at So. Chgo. (Trinity) hospital. She will be missed. God Bless all of you and give you strength and love to carry on.
